Last week, Scavino posted a photo from inside Trump’s jet on his way to Pensacola, Florida. He now works closely with the key members of the campaign, including Trump himself, to deliver information to the public. “I told (Trump), if he runs for president, that I am all in,” Scavino said. After a brief time working outside of the Trump organization, Scavino returned to work on this latest venture. Scavino rose through the ranks to become the executive vice president and general manager at the golf club. Scavino met Trump when he was a caddie and bag room attendant at Briarcliff Manor Club, which Trump later purchased and renamed Trump National Golf Club, Westchester. It was Scavino, Trump said, who convinced him to inspect the property. 23, 2009, the business mogul and former reality television host purchased Branton Woods Golf Course in Stormville and renamed it Trump National Golf Club, Hudson Valley. Trump came to the mid-Hudson Valley six years ago. On Dec. He's made headlines, garnering support and detractors for his controversial stances on immigration and foreign diplomacy, and for his criticisms of President Obama, since launching his campaign in June. With the countdown to the 2016 election underway, Dutchess County once again finds itself brushing with the presidency, as it is linked to one of the most visible, and polarizing, candidates.Īccording to USA Today's Presidential Poll Tracker, which averages several national polls, Trump commands 34.5 percent of the Republican vote, leading the field. In fact, in 1944, Dutchess had two residents running for the White House - Roosevelt for the Democrats and Thomas Dewey on the GOP line. But perhaps the deepest example came from the 1930s and 40s, when Hyde Park native son Franklin D. Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton lives in the Hudson Valley and her daughter, Chelsea, was married in Rhinebeck.
Trump's connection to Dutchess is only the latest example of a local link to presidential politics.
These days, it’s packed with videos from campaign events and photos posed in a different city nearly every day, as he manages the Trump social media message. “We are traveling all over the country, and every single minute, hour and day is completely different,” said Scavino, whose Twitter feed was filled with issues facing the Wappingers Central School District not long ago. And, Trump family members also own property locally. Dan Scavino is a Trump senior adviser. Trump has built relationships over the years with other locals. Trump, who owns Trump National Golf Club, Hudson Valley, in Stormville, has had a Hopewell Junction man at his side for much of the campaign to win the Republican nomination for president. While the campaign hasn't touched down in Dutchess County, it is another example of the mid-Hudson Valley's connection to presidential politics. For the past seven months, Donald Trump has canvassed the nation, holding rallies and making appearances, as he constructs a presidential campaign.
