It seems that Susie Wiles, Trumps Chief of Staff, gave an interview to Vanity Fair and of course, they edited it to become a hit piece on Trump.

Quote:

Wiles, responding to Vanity Fair's articles, said it is a "disingenuously framed hit piece on me and the finest President, White House staff, and Cabinet in history."



No matter what Trump accomplishes, he will never get a fair assessment from the MSM.

She should not have consented to an interview. Nothing to be gained. Just Like Trump should not have consented to interviews with Woodward, Stahl, etc. ...

I understand there is an arrogance (that I don't understand) to people at that level. However, there's an astounding amount of stupidity (not ignorance) if she thought letting them follow her around would not result in a hit piece.

How dumb do you have to be to do an interview with Vanity Fair. She should be fired.

It doesn't matter whether anything in the article is true. She has no choice but to claim it was a hit job. Can't say that I believe either of them.

...or his Chief of Staff, I suppose.

I don't understand why she did the interview (actually series of interviews; it sounds like these went on for months).

She's by far the most experienced (and IMO most intelligent) political operative in the White House and the one that has been able to keep her name out of the media all this time. It doesn't make sense that she did this.

Has Wile come out and said anything specifically that was not true?

Or just the very broad and generic "its out of context"?

Not sure what she was thinking would be the result of a Vanity Fair interview!

There are some conservative insiders now speculating that this is a push to make changes that Trump doesn't want to do explicitly e.g. force Bondi to resign.

If Wiles was a Dem, VF would give her the Michelle Obama treatment and make her out to be a hot fashion icon who deserves to be in Mensa and is the sweetest lady in DC...Instead, they ambushed her.

Republicans never learn

Seems like a bizarre way to get Bondi to resign!

What she said about Bondi to Vanity Fair (allegedly) is pretty common knowledge!

I give her credit for being smarter than that. That's why it doesn't make sense to me.

Most of the people around her can't get out of their own way. She's always been different though.

So I guess we all agree it was an ill-advised interview, but it seems like nothing has actually been shown to be false right?

Is anyone actually denying the claims? I've just seen them gesture generally to missing context, but that's not really a denial without an explanation of that that context was and what the true meaning of the quote was within that context.

Even conservatives within the Trump administration have not learned you cannot under any circumstances trust or work with the MSM in anyway. Shut them out. Give them nothing.

Either that or she's incredibly naive or stupid.

Many of the quotes were widely out of context.

Vanity Fair is a DEI company. They don't hire white men and when you hire based on anything other than ability, you get what Vanity Fair is, dog*****

What are the many quotes? And I don't mean silly things like "acts like an alcoholic".

Speaking of her criticism of the administration. Has she said which are wrong? Again, I only saw that vague "out of context" comment from her with no explanation.

She spoke on the record, while being recorded with her consent, 11 times. This was exactly the result she expected and wanted. Her "protest" was just cover. She had her reasons for getting this out there, she is not stupid.

Again, MAGA can't see the grass for the trees.

I already said that just gesturing vaguely to being out of context is weak sauce. You have to give specific examples of what was quoted, what the context was, and why that substantively changes the meaning.

Since you again just made a vague reference, I'm going to assume you have nothing and it's generally accurate, as many sources have confirmed already.

Has Wiles resigned yet? Wasn't sure what actions had been taken regarding this huge betrayal.

HOW F-ING STUPID DO YOU HAVE TO BE TO DO AN INTERVIEW WITH THEM AND EXPECT ANYTHING ELSE.

These people think your boss is the spawn of Adolf Hitler and Satan and have for a decade. But this time it will be different?

Sketchy.

because despite cosplaying as outsider mavericks trying to tear down these institutions, deep down trump's cabinet desperately wants their validation and approval

As with Trump and Woodward, they think they will be the ones to convince the MSM guys to tell the truth about them. McEnany and Perino, both former WH press ladies covered this phenomenon. Perino with VF and Karl Rove, seems like maybe Huckabee allowed Woodward (or more likely Trump did it on his own).

Its an absolute unforced error, but I don't think there was anything of consequence disclosed. More confirmation of what most people, even Trump supporters, think.
