New Actor: Trump's Chief of Staff Critiques Media

On December 16, 2025, Susie Wiles, acting as Donald Trump's chief of staff, publicly responded to a Vanity Fair article that she deemed a 'hit piece' on Trump. Wiles defended Trump during an interview, addressing the article's claims directly.

In her remarks, Wiles characterized Trump as having an 'alcoholic's personality' and criticized JD Vance, labeling him a 'conspiracy theorist' for the past decade.

Wiles' comments come amid ongoing scrutiny of Trump's influence on immigration and business policy, as he remains a significant figure in the Republican Party.

The Vanity Fair article has sparked debate within political circles about Trump's behavior and its implications for his future political ambitions.
