President Donald Trump reportedly spends late-night hours on the phone with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, bonding over TV and sports while comparing notes. The longtime New York allies maintain a close relationship despite Lutnick’s rocky reputation with other White House officials and his controversial role in Trump’s proposed “External Revenue Service” plan. Sources say their nightly calls often run past 1 a.m., giving Lutnick a unique window into Trump’s thinking and making him a key confidant in the administration.
