My Take
Reince Priebus interests me as a study in the machinery behind politics rather than its spotlight. Trained as a lawyer and raised in Wisconsin, he climbed to chair the Republican National Committee and then served, briefly, as Donald Trump's first White House chief of staff. The chief-of-staff role lasted only about six months, which says a lot about how punishing that job can be. Still, I tend to respect the organizers and fixers, the people who keep institutions running while others give the speeches. His career is a reminder that the unglamorous coordinating work often demands the steadiest nerves.
