Sean Spicer

Sean Spicer's political career began long before the former White House press secretary made his mark as one of the most recognized staffers in the Trump administration. Sean built a decades-long career in Republican politics, witnessing and shaping the inner workings of Washington, DC, from every vantage point - as a House of Representatives communicator, heading up incumbent retention at the National Republican Senatorial Committee, in George W. Bush's White House as Assistant U.S. Trade Representative, as the Chief Strategist and Director of Communications at the Republican National Committee, top advisor to presidential campaigns, and of course, White House press secretary. After Trump became the Republican nominee, Sean split his time between his role at the RNC and on the Trump campaign in an advisory capacity. Sean played a pivotal role in the party's improbable wins across the country that November.

Sean made his way up through the ranks and has experience at every level in Washington. He is a New York Times best selling author, a partner in a political mail firm, communications and strategic consultant and the host of Newsmax's Spicer & Co on weeknights at 6p.

Sean is a Rhode Island native and holds a master's degree in National Security and Strategic Studies from the U.S. Naval War College and serves as a commander in the U.S. Navy Reserve. A husband and father of two, he resides in Virginia but remains a loyal fan of the Boston Red Sox and New England Patriots.
