Massad Boulos Was Just Appointed By Trump As Senior Advisor for Middle Eastern Affairs
U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, now preparing to assume office in January 2025, has appointed Lebanese-American businessman Massad Boulos as his senior advisor for Arab and Middle Eastern affairs.
Boulos, who has deep ties to the Middle East and a successful career in business across Nigeria and the United States, played a pivotal role in mobilizing Arab and Lebanese communities in the U.S. during Trump’s reelection campaign.
His strategic efforts contributed significantly to flipping Michigan – a swing state with the largest Lebanese and Arab population in the U.S. – to Republican in the 2024 election.

Boulos leveraged his cultural and business connections to address key concerns of Arab American voters, including foreign policy and representation, energizing these communities to support Trump’s vision.
Boulos has played a pivotal role in getting Trump’s messaging across the Middle East through Lebanese and Arabic news outlets. This was seen during the campaign and more so with the signing of the cease-fire agreement between Israel and Hezbollah where he continued making efforts to clarify the terms.
Donald Trump’s daughter, Tiffany Trump, is married to Michael Boulos, Massad’s son.
