'Heads would explode': Key Trump adviser and ex-caddie floats run for Elise Stefanik seat

A key Trump adviser and former caddie is considering running for Congress to replace the MAGA loyalist President-elect Donald Trump wants to represent the U.S. abroad.

Dan Scavino Jr. on Friday floated the idea of chasing the New York seat that will be left vacant should the Senate confirm Rep. Elise Stefanik as the next U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.

"I wonder if heads would explode," he wrote in a Truth Social post, "if I moved just a little bit north [laughter emoji] and ran in the Special Election for Elise Stefanik’s seat in #NY21, being she’s going to the United Nations."

Scavino, Trump's former social media director and White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Communications, began his career as Trump's caddie at the Briar Hall Country Club in New York’s Hudson Valley, reports show.

He then became general manager of Trump National Golf Club, traveled the world with his boss, and was featured on a golf-themed episode of “The Apprentice," according to a CNN bio from 2016.

The report notes Scavino's entry into politics was marked by scandal almost from the onset.

"Scavino was thrust into controversy over the Fourth of July weekend when Trump’s Twitter account posted an image of Hillary Clinton that featured a six-pointed star, a pile of cash and the words 'most corrupt candidate ever,'" CNN reported.

"The image had originally appeared on an anti-Semitic, white supremacist message board."

Scavino served as a senior advisor to Trump's 2024 campaign.

Stefanik represents New York's 21st congressional district which covers a large swath of the state's northern territory.

She is one of many conservative lawmakers who transitioned from expressing abject disdain for Trump to absolute support during his 2024 reelection campaign.

Despite rumors she appeared on Trump's vice presidential shortlist, and insults levied at the international organization, the president-elect earlier this month opted to tap Stefanik for the U.N. ambassadorship.

"Stefanik has repeatedly attacked the United Nations over accusations that the world body is antisemitic," Politico reported at the time, "Last month she called for a 'complete reassessment of U.S. funding of the United Nations' in response to efforts by the Palestinian Authority to expel Israel from the United Nations as war rages in the Middle East."
