UPDATE: This interview with the Vanity Fair reporter just dropped and it actually tells a very different story: https://www.npr.org/2025/12/17/nx-s1-5647310/vanity-fair-reporter-gets-an-inside-view-from-susie-wiles-the-woman-behind-trump-2-0
The most surprising thing about Whitehouse Chief of Staff Susie Wiles’ super-revealing interviews just released by Vanity Fair, and talked about across the Internet, is that nobody is surprised. Although it is mildly surprising that she hasn’t been fired. After all, she *did* acknowledge that Trump uses the DOJ “score settling,” called Russell Vought “a right-wing absolute zealot,” and said that Vance is “a conspiracy theorist for a decade.” (Be sure to see my question at the end.)
The Times explains: “She spoke candidly about the challenges of managing a volatile boss, the battles she had lost and the curious collection of people surrounding him.”
Then, in response to Vanity Fair’s articles, “Ms. Wiles went on social media after the story was published to call it “a disingenuously framed hit piece on me and the finest President, White House staff, and Cabinet in history.” She took no issue with any of the facts in the article, but said only that “significant context was disregarded and much of what I, and others, said about the team and the President was left out of the story.”
Given the above, could it be that Ms. Wiles’ is in fact about to go down as a hero, having given everyone enough to finally *do something* about this Article II, Section 4 and/or 25th Amendment waiting to happen?
Or, at least equally likely, is this a well-planned hit/not hit piece intended to put it all in the open and *still* have everyone say “so what?” so that Trump et al can protest in the future that “We told you all about it, you knew it, and you accepted it, so no harm no foul?”
