CNN featured an interview with the Vanity Fair reporter who did the Susie Wiles interview everyone is talking about.
“An extraordinary, revealing interview from one of President Trump’s most trusted advisers, chief of staff Susie Wiles Scott, unusually candid with Vanity Fair about working for Donald Trump, dishing at times on Trump’s cabinet and vice president, and delivered some unflattering assessments of some of the president’s policies. and even the president himself,” Sarah Sidner said.
“A short list of just some of her assessments that she told to Chris Whipple of Vanity Fair. Trump, she said, has an alcoholic’s personality, believing there’s nothing he can’t do. JD Vance, she says, is a conspiracy theorist who is guided by politics. Pam Bondi ‘completely whiffed’ on the Epstein files. She called budget director and Project 2025 architect Russell Vought ‘a right wing zealot.’ She said Elon Musk’s DOGE chaos was linked to his alleged drug use, and she admitted that Trump is out for revenge, which New York Attorney General Letitia James’ lawyer called ‘an astonishing admission.’
“Wiles is now distancing herself from the profile, calling the article a hit piece and claiming her words were taken out of context. The White House is echoing the same sentiment today.
