There’s a lot of dissension in MAGA right now, what with Marge and Trump feuding, Tucker and the Nazis vs Ben Shapiro and Ted Cruz, the Heritage Foundation imploding, the manosphere edging away. But this is new and it clearly means that the base is unhappy with Dear Leader — but they just can’t say it:
Donald Trump’s longtime supporters are coming for White House gatekeeper Susie Wiles, blaming the president’s so-called “Ice Maiden” for his missteps on everything from the Jeffrey Epstein files to his America First agenda.
After a turbulent week marked by criticism of the president’s comments on “affordability,” skilled worker visas, Chinese students, and his halting response to the newly released Epstein emails, MAGA loyalists have openly accused his chief of staff of steering the president off-course.
Wiles, long viewed as one of the architects behind Trump’s 2024 campaign revival and now a central force inside the West Wing, has spent years cultivating a reputation as a disciplined, discreet operative—someone who not just advises Trump, but tries to keep him focused and filters out the noise for h
But for some hardline conservatives and MAGA loyalists, her gatekeeping is now the problem.
“Susie Wiles needs to be gone yesterday,” a MAGA acolyte wrote on X. “I have a feel (sic) a lot of the domestic crap is from her side of the party and it’s drowning out Stephen Miller.”
“I am publicly calling for Trump to fire Susie Wiles. She is doing unspeakable damage to MAHA and MAGA, in my opinion,” wrote another.
“Psssssst … hey Susie Wiles, you may wanna pivot now. The MAGA ship is sailing and several of you missed the boat,” far-right commentator Ann Vandersteel wrote on X this week. “Oh, and friendly reminder, we the people are YOUR boss. President Trump is too. And WE are his boss.”
I’m pretty sure Trump does NOT believe he works for you honey. He is the King. You best bow down.
MAGA’s rage intensified on Tuesday when the president dismissed concerns from his base that Chinese students were taking up college places that Americans wanted.
“I know what MAGA wants better than anyone else,” he said in a jaw-dropping interview with Fox News ally Laura Ingraham.
By the next day, however, that rage turned white hot when the “America First” president suggested that there were no talented workers in the U.S. after being cornered for allowing high-skilled foreign workers into the country.
This is interesting because it’s about the one thing Trump cares about as much as getting revenge: his money. But sure guys, this is all about Susie Wiles. You keep believing that.
