The 6 ‘Warrior Angels’ who guided Donald Trump to victory including ‘ice baby’ campaign manager & golfer granddaughter

DONALD TRUMP’S re-election as President has caused one of the biggest stirs in US history – especially with angry women’s rights activists.

But not everyone shares their fury, with 44 per cent of American females wanting The Donald, 78, to win the race to the White House.

In fact, exit polls revealed that more white women voted for him than for Kamala Harris, 60.

And now a strong team of “warrior angels” have stepped up to support the 47th US President, including “ice baby” campaign manager Susie Wiles, 67, who propelled the former Apprentice host to victory.

Trump’s daughter Ivanka may have taken a back seat in this campaign, but he always has dutiful wife Melania.

Here, Hayley Minn looks at six formidable ladies backing Trump in his incredible comeback.

KAI MADISON

TRUMP’S granddaughter Kai, 17, could play an important role in his future.

The daughter of his eldest son, Donald Jr, praised her Grandpa on social media for his presidential win.

Posting a snap of herself and Trump, she proudly wrote: “No one works harder or cares more about the American people.

“Congratulations Grandpa, I love you!”

Kai – the eldest of Trump’s 10 grandchildren – previously opened up about “the side of her grandpa that people don’t often see”.

At the Republican National Convention, she said: “To me, he’s just a normal grandpa.

“He gives us candy and soda when our parents aren’t looking.”

Referring to convicted felon Trump’s various legal battles, she added: “Even when he’s going through all these court cases, he always asks me how I’m doing.”

MELANIA TRUMP

FIRST Lady Melania – who has been married to Trump since 2005 – was noticeably absent for most of the campaign.

And her memoir, published earlier this year, proved she disagrees with some of the Republican Party’s core stances as, in it, she passionately advocated for a woman’s right to abortion.

Despite this, following the attempt on Trump’s life in July, Melania, 54, described him as “the generous and caring man who I have been with through the best . . . and the worst of times”.

She also stood hand-in-hand with him as he won the election.

He hailed his “beautiful wife” for “working very hard to help people” in his victory speech.

However, Melania won’t be moving into the White House with Trump. Instead, she’s expected to split her time between Florida and New York.

USHA VANCE

JD VANCE’s wife Usha, 38, is a lawyer, a Yale and Cambridge graduate, the Hindu daughter of Indian immigrants – and has just become the America’s “second lady” as Vance is Trump’s VP.

She has largely stayed out of the political spotlight, but JD revealed he feels “humbled” by his wife’s impressive credentials, having worked as a corporate litigator at a prestigious San Francisco law firm, and clerked for Brett Kavanaugh, now a Supreme Court Justice, and Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts.

He’s even spoken about the fact she has considerable influence over his career, and is the “powerful female voice on his left shoulder”, giving him guidance.

“Usha definitely brings me back to Earth a little bit,” Vance told the Megyn Kelly Show podcast in 2020.

“And if I maybe get a little bit too cocky, or a little too proud, I just remind myself that she is way more accomplished than I am.

“People don’t realise just how brilliant she is.”

LINDA MCMAHON

LINDA MCMAHON, 76, was appointed co-chair of Trump’s transition team alongside Howard Lutnick in August.

She was previously administrator of Trump’s Small Business Administration and played a role in his 2020 campaign.

“President Trump is a job creator and the best friend American workers have ever had in the White House,” she once said.

“He is a champion of the forgotten men and women, as I have experienced first-hand.”

Linda co-founded WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) in 1980 alongside her husband, Vince McMahon, and met Trump while she was CEO of the company.

In a lawsuit, filed on behalf of five alleged victims, the couple were accused of knowingly allowing the grooming, exploitation and sexual abuse of young boys in the Eighties and Nineties.

They have denied any wrongdoing.

SUSIE WILES

CAMPAIGN manager Susie Wiles was among the list of people Trump thanked before his win was officially announced.

“Susie likes to stay sort of in the back . . . We call her the ice baby,” he said.

While she has mostly remained in the shadows, Susie did defend the President in her first post on X in nearly two years, after millionaire businessman Mark Cuban claimed Trump doesn’t surround himself with “strong, intelligent women”.

“I’m told @mcuban needs help identifying the strong and intelligent women surrounding Pres. Trump.

“Well, here we are!” Susie wrote.

“I’ve been proud to lead this campaign.”

Described by Politico as Trump’s “most important adviser”, Susie has worked in politics for several decades and is apparently the frontrunner for the job of White House chief of staff.

LARA TRUMP

MARRIED to Trump’s son Eric, Lara, 42, has become his “right hand woman” and joined the family line-up during his victory speech.

She was a journalist and contributor to Fox News until 2022, when she began working for her father-in-law.

The new President’s biographer has claimed that Lara rose to prominence in the Trump pecking order by displaying utter loyalty as Ivanka disengaged.

Donald has already made her co-chair of the Republican National Committee.

David Cay Johnston, author of The Making Of Donald Trump, said: “Putting Lara Trump in as head of the Republican National Committee, who has no experience in that kind of organisation … is yet another sign that Donald Trump is seeking dictatorial powers and has no interest in accountability and in working in the political system as we have known it.”
