Trump Taps Massad Boulos, Tiffany’s Father-in-Law, as Arab Middle East Adviser

Joel B. Pollak 1 Dec 2024

President-elect Donald Trump announced Sunday that he had named Christian Lebanese businessman Massad Boulos, the father-in-law of Trump’s daughter, Tiffany, as his senior adviser on Arab and Middle Eastern affairs.

Boulous had already been serving in that role during the 2024 presidential campaign, famously promising that President-elect Trump would end the war in Lebanon before he took office — a promise on which he delivered.

Boulos has also reached out to Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas, even as the Trump transition team has deepened its ties with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump said:

    I am proud to announce that Massad Boulos will serve as Senior Advisor to the President on Arab and Middle Eastern affairs. Massad is an accomplished lawyer and a highly respected leader in the business world, with extensive experience on the International scene. He has been a longtime proponent of Republican and Conservative values, an asset to my Campaign, and was instrumental in building tremendous new coalitions with the Arab American Community. Massad is a dealmaker, and an unwavering supporter of PEACE in the Middle East. He will be a strong advocate for the United States, and its interests, and I am pleased to have him on our team!

Boulos joins a team of advisers that is staunchly pro-Israel — a curious combination, but a reflection of the fact that Trump won a historically large percentage of Jewish votes while also picking up Arab and Muslim votes in Michigan.

Excellent choice. I've been waiting for Trump to pick his son-in-law Michael Boulos for a position, but his father is an even better selection.

As an American of Lebanese Christian descent myself, and one who even shares a name with this gentleman, I wish him the best. In some respects, the Christians in the Middle East have it worse than anyone.

I had the distinct pleasure of getting to work alongside Massad Boulos during the campaign. His skills and abilities are, in a word, spectacular. No one is more committed to fostering community and brotherhood at home and restoring peace and harmony abroad. Grand slam selection.
