When Donald Trump took the stage in West Palm Beach, Florida, to claim victory in last week's presidential election, he called his campaign manager Susie Wiles out from behind a row of his relatives to thank her.

"Susie! Susie! Susie likes to stay sort of in the back," Trump said as Wiles, 67, came forward and shook his hand.

He invited her to address the crowd. She shook her head several times and quickly retreated to the back of the stage.
