<\/a><\/p>\nTrump added that Wiles has \u201ca fantastic medical team\u201d and that her prognosis is \u201cexcellent,\u201d noting she plans to spend \u201cvirtually full time at the White House\u201d during treatment.<\/p>\n
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt praised Wiles\u2019 leadership, writing that she \u201cepitomizes what it means to be a strong leader,\u201d while Deputy Chief of Staff James Blair said her record navigating legal and political battles around Trump\u2019s return to the presidency shows she has the resolve to face the challenge ahead.<\/p>\n
Closer to home, Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson also shared new details about a recent medical episode involving Dunn, the Panhandle Republican who has already announced he will retire at the end of the year.<\/p>\n
Trump said Dunn\u2019s condition had become serious before doctors intervened quickly.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo. 1, it was bad \u2019cause I liked him. No. 2, it was bad \u2019cause I needed his votes,\u201d Trump said during a Washington news conference, recounting how Dunn had pledged to continue serving as long as he could.<\/p>\n
Trump said White House physicians helped arrange rapid treatment that included a lengthy operation involving additional stents and other procedures. Doctors later told him Dunn would recover, a development Johnson said has left the Congressman energized and ready to continue serving the remainder of his term.<\/p>\n \u201cHe has a new lease on life. He has more energy than a man half his age,\u201d Johnson added. \u201cSo, again, a testament to great leadership. And he\u2019s, my hat\u2019s off to Neal Dunn, and his beautiful wife and family. He\u2019s an extraordinary individual.\u201d<\/p>\n Evening Reads<\/p>\n \u2014\u201dDonald Trump sold young voters on his vision.
