During an appearance on MS NOW on Wednesday morning, author Chris Whipple, who conducted the bombshell interview with White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, pushed back on her contention that her comments were taken out of context.
After he pointed out he had every word “on tape,” he noted that at one point, Donald Trump’s handler snapped when he made an observation about her job duties.
Speaking with the hosts of “Morning Joe,“ Whipple recalled, “I spoke, for example, to Leon Panetta about this. Panetta was, of course, Bill Clinton's very effective White House chief of staff, the gold standard, along with [Jim] Baker, in my view.”
“Panetta said, ‘I can't tell whether she's an enabler or whether she really speaks hard truths,'” he reported.
“When I mentioned that to Susie Wiles, I got a real rise out of her,” he added. “She did not want to be considered an enabler. And she said, “I'm not an enabler and I'm not a. b----.”
