President Donald Trump's former campaign manager and current chief of staff, Susie Wiles left no one untouched speaking to a Vanity Fair reporter for a profile that was posted on Tuesday.
Speaking on Wednesday about the article, conservative Republican Erick Erickson noted that between the palace intrigue was the disappointment in the jobs being done by top Trump Cabinet members.
"I actually interpret this article, here at the end of the first year of the Trump Administration, as part of a reset effort," Erickson said, as Josh Kraushaar quoted on X.
"Wiles is saying things the President cannot publicly say. She is saying Homeland Security has not been good at its job and needs to handle deportations better. She is saying Pam Bondi is not good at her job and probably needs to consider calling it quits. She is saying lots of things the President would like to say to reset the administration and deflate the egos of some of its members who have been riding high on their own supply," Erickson continued.
He found it "notable" that there were people who participated in the piece and others who were not included. Who those people were could say something about the future makeup of the Trump Cabinet.
