Trump’s New Aide Margo Martin Joins His Inner Circle, Draws Comparisons To Hope Hicks

On Sunday, Donald Trump‘s new aide, Margo Martin, joined the former president for a Formula One race in Miami.

As Martin, 28, accompanied Trump to the race, she showcased her chic style and close proximity to the former president. Martin shared a behind-the-scenes glimpse of her adventure with Trump on Instagram, a post captioned “F1 with boss.”

The images show Martin and the Trump side by side, with broad smiles, next to the racetrack. This display of camaraderie and proximity to the former president has only further publically solidified Martin’s status within Trump’s inner circle.

An Oklahoma native, Martin began her journey as a White House press assistant and steadily climbed the ranks. Martin’s striking features have drawn comparisons to another prominent figure in Trump’s orbit – Melania Trump, the former first lady and fashion model.

Melania has kept a lower profile in recent weeks and has made sporadic appearances at various fundraisers. 

Interestingly, the witness list for an ongoing trial includes another Trump-era figure who bears a resemblance to Martin – Hope Hicks, the former White House communications director. Hicks, a former teen model who appeared in a Ralph Lauren ad, joined the Trump administration in 2017 and later returned to the fold after a lucrative stint at Fox.

On May 3, Hicks broke down on the witness stand testifying against Trump at his hush money trial. 

As Trump embarks on his latest presidential bid, another name that has made waves is Gov. Kristi Noem (R-South Dakota). Noem, one of Trump’s most loyal supporters, has long been vying for the role of running mate notably, as Noem embraced the MAGA ideology, her appearance transformed, with her all-business layered bob giving way to a more flowing, Hicks-esque hairstyle.

However, Noem’s veep aspirations may have taken a hit after she drew criticism for boasting in her memoir about executing her dog, Cricket, a hated wirehaired pointer, in the past.
