Donald Trump's chief of staff, Susie Wiles, came under fire after an astonishing interview with Vanity Fair where she described Trump as having an "alcoholic's personality." Despite the controversial remarks, Trump publicly defended Wiles, stating she has done a "fantastic job."

• Wiles, whose own father was an alcoholic, stated Trump "operates (with) a view that there's nothing he can’t do."
• She also labeled Vice President JD Vance a "conspiracy theorist" and called tech tycoon Elon Musk an "odd, odd duck."
• Trump, who is teetotal, acknowledged the "alcoholic's personality" description, saying "I have said that many times about myself, I do. It's a very possessive personality."
