旁白：苏茜·怀尔斯作为历史上第一位女性白宫幕僚长，肩负着在特朗普政府中建立纪律和秩序的重任。她的成功与否将决定特朗普政府的走向，是开创性的总统任期还是陷入混乱。她以冷静和幕后工作能力著称，在处理危机时能够保持冷静，并有效地进行幕后运作。 Chris Whipple：白宫幕僚长的角色对总统的成功至关重要，他们需要能够有效地执行总统的议程。然而，特朗普的前几任幕僚长都未能成功，部分原因在于特朗普本人从未真正理解幕僚长的角色，也没有授权他们执行议程并提供逆耳忠言。苏茜·怀尔斯与前任相比，她拥有与特朗普共事的能力、谨慎选择冲突以及良好的气质，这些都是她的优势。然而，她能否成功仍然是一个巨大的挑战，因为特朗普政府的混乱和特朗普本人的性格都是巨大的障碍。她需要在参与重要决策的同时，巧妙地处理与其他重要人物（如埃隆·马斯克）的关系，才能在特朗普政府中真正发挥作用。 Chris Whipple: 白宫幕僚长的角色至关重要，需要能够有效执行总统的议程。过去，特朗普政府的幕僚长们未能成功，部分原因是特朗普本人对该角色的理解不足，也没有授权幕僚长执行议程并提供逆耳忠言。苏茜·怀尔斯具备一些前任所不具备的优势，例如她与特朗普共事的能力、谨慎选择冲突以及良好的气质。然而，她能否成功仍然是一个巨大的挑战。她需要巧妙地处理与其他重要人物（如埃隆·马斯克）的关系，并参与所有重要的决策，才能在特朗普政府中真正发挥作用。特朗普政府初期采取的“震慑”策略可能具有短期效果，但并非长期成功的秘诀。有效的领导需要专注于有限的目标，而不是同时处理大量事务。
