Trump has an 'alcoholic personality' and Vance is a 'conspiracy theorist': White House chief of staff gives scandalous interview

68-year-old Susie Wiles, the White House chief of staff, nicknamed the Ice Maiden, gave damning psychological characteristics of the US president and vice president in an interview for Vanity Fair magazine, writes Daily Mail.

Over the past year, Wiles has compared Trump to her late alcoholic father and legendary sportscaster Pat Summerall. The president, she says, "operates with the conviction that there's nothing he can't do. Nothing, zero, nothing."

Remarkably, Trump doesn't drink. He has spoken about the loss of his older brother, Fred, to alcohol and drug addiction.

On the subject: Trump plans to build a massive Triumphal Arch in Virginia, making it a top priority for his administration.

The White House chief of staff also commented on Vice President J.D. Vance, recalling that he joined the MAGA camp relatively late and had previously criticized Trump. According to her, Vance "has been fascinated by conspiracy theories for a decade."

Susie Wiles is a seasoned political strategist who has worked with Trump for nearly a decade, dating back to his 2015 campaign. She is considered one of the most influential figures in the administration and became the first woman in US history to serve as White House Chief of Staff. However, shortly after the article's publication on December 16, Wiles issued a strong denial, calling the material a fabrication.

"An article published early this morning (December 16th – Approx. Ed."This is a dishonestly edited, commissioned piece aimed at me, the best president in history, the White House staff, and the Cabinet," Wiles said. She claimed that important context was ripped out of the interview, and many of her statements and those of others were edited out to create an artificially negative image of the president and his team.

The interview itself, however, contains many revelations about the people with whom Wiles works most closely. She calls them her "watchdogs"—a group of influential Trump aides willing to carry out the president's orders without hesitation and oppose those who would hinder his plans.

"She doesn't raise her voice. But she likes to keep her watchdogs close by," White House Deputy Chief of Staff James Blair, 36, told Vanity Fair. He described Wiles as a man who "goes to church every Sunday and rarely swears." Blair himself is one of those "bulldogs" Wiles uses to carry out the president's will.

The group includes longtime Trump adviser and architect of his domestic policy, Stephen Miller, and Dan Scavino, Trump's former golf caddy, or assistant, turned adviser.

Both hold the positions of deputy White House chief of staff. However, according to the article, Miller is considered the most senior of the two.

Wiles also made a wry remark about former DOGE advisor Elon Musk, suggesting that he was "microdosing," or using a small amount of psychoactive substances, when he posted about Hitler on social media this year. Asked about Musk's late-night posts about Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, and Mao Zedong, 68-year-old Wiles said, "I think it's microdosing." She acknowledged she had no evidence, but pointed out that the entrepreneur, a father of more than a dozen children, had previously admitted to using ketamine.

Ketamine is a psychoactive substance used as an anesthetic and, in lower doses, as a treatment for depression and pain. It blocks NMDA receptors in the brain, which affects the transmission of signals between neurons and leads to a reduced perception of pain and an altered consciousness. Ketamine also induces dissociation—a feeling of separation of consciousness from the body or environment, often described as an "out-of-body experience."

Other effects include pain reduction, sedation, altered perception of time and space, euphoria, and hallucinations. At medical doses, these effects are manageable, but recreational use can cause mental and physical risks, including confusion, impaired coordination, increased blood pressure, and increased heart rate.

In recent years, low doses of ketamine have been used under medical supervision to treat treatment-resistant depression, with the effect occurring more quickly than with traditional antidepressants. Approx. Ed.)

"He's a complete loner," she said of Musk. He's a confirmed ketamine user, sleeps in a sleeping bag in the executive office building during the day, and is generally "a strange, very strange person—like many geniuses, I suppose."

The article also states that the "core" of the chief of staff's team includes Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and a 40-year-old homeland security adviser (apparently referring to Stephen Miller). Approx. Ed.) Meanwhile, Wiles offered far less flattering characterizations of other figures in Trump's entourage. For example, she compared Office of Budget and Control Director Russell Vought, one of the key ideologists behind Project 2025, to a "far-right fanatic."
