Donald Trump Jr. blasted out a lengthy statement Tuesday morning, in defense of his father’s White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles.
The First Son’s statement came in response to a hit piece on Wiles by the liberal outlet, Vanity Fair, published early Tuesday morning.
Below is his full statement:
Susie Wiles is by far the most effective and trustworthy Chief of Staff that my father has ever had. When Susie took over my father’s political operation after J6, people forget how many “Republicans” were treating him like a pariah.
Countless operatives, consultants and elected Republicans thought my dad’s political career was over and wanted nothing to do with him. They attacked him ruthlessly and predicted that he would lose if he ran for office in 2024.
Not Susie. She was a loyal fighter for him from the moment she came on board.
When things were tough and other supposed friends left my dad like a bunch of rats, Susie stood by his side and worked her ass off everyday to rebuild his political operation and ensure that his comeback in 2024 would be successful.
When others cowered, she stood strong.
One of the other things I’ve always appreciated about Susie is how she has never tried to subvert my father’s America First policy agenda. She is an honest broker who only cares about executing my dad’s wishes on policy – Which is much different than how things were in his first term when countless staffers thought it was there job to “rein in” Trump.
From securing the border, to not getting dragged into endless wars, to reining in the leftist Administrative State, Susie has been a gigantic ally to the entire America First movement.
Most people don’t know that Susie was also the person I worked closest with on the 2024 campaign to bring RFK JR. and the MAHA movement on board.
While others were skeptical of MAHA, Susie immediately got it and has been one of its biggest advocates in the entire Administration.
She doesn’t talk much about any of this stuff because she doesn’t like to take credit for things (another rarity in DC!) but I have seen it with my own eyes behind the scenes for years now.
I very rarely speak out about my father’s staffers, but there is no one on Earth more equipped to serve my father as Chief of Staff than Susie.
Susie Wiles is by far the most effective and trustworthy Chief of Staff that my father has ever had.
