Members of President Donald Trump’s Cabinet apparently knew ahead of time that their photo shoot with Vanity Fair was a bad idea, even joking amongst each other that they may lose their jobs over the photo session, Vanity Fair reported Tuesday.
"We’re all going to get fired for this!” one of Trump’s cabinet members said, according to Vanity Fair, shortly after seven of Trump’s top officials filed into a White House room “a bit like nervous schoolchildren.”
“Except for me!” Vance apparently quipped in response. “I have 100% job security!”
The Trump administration continues to face fallout from Vanity Fair’s reporting Tuesday, which, in addition to a batch of new photographs of top Trump officials, also included stunning remarks from White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles that criticized Vance and other top White House officials, as well as undercut Trump’s past statements over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.
Vanity Fair Editorial Director Mark Guiducci detailed the photo shoot further in his reporting, highlighting the at times awkward atmosphere of the session.
“Stephen Miller’s gaze is like a laser beam, and his calculated manner of speaking made me think of HAL from 2001: A Space Odyssey,” Guiducci wrote. “We photographed him in front of a painting of Native Americans: Crossing the River Platte, by Worthington Whittredge… Miller balked at the idea of sitting on the end of the table – ‘not natural,’ he declared.”
