In this edition of Bloomberg's "Balance of Power," former acting White House Chief of Staff and Freedom Caucus co-founder Mick Mulvaney weighs in on the short-lived tenure of Katie Zacharia as White House press secretary. Mulvaney argues the Trump administration "set" Zacharia "up to fail" by not giving her enough preparation before she began her five-day stint in the role, and he suggests President Donald Trump does not necessarily need to move quickly to name a replacement. He also says whether Chief of Staff Susie Wiles remains in her position much longer is "anybody's guess." The program, which focuses on the intersection of politics and global business, also features Suzanne Clark, President and CEO of the US Chamber of Commerce. Clark makes the case that businesses are seeking greater certainty from Washington, pointing to priorities such as faster permitting and more legal immigration as key to keeping supply chains and operations on track. Together, the conversations offer a look at the personnel and policy pressures shaping the early Trump White House, from the rapid turnover in the press office to the business community's wish list on regulation, trade and labor.
