Trump Faults Aides as Republican Midterm Prospects Dim
- On Saturday, President Donald Trump blamed senior aides for a "faltering midterm strategy," questioning $200 million in campaign spending by MAGA Inc. and candidate choices as Republicans fight to retain Congress.
- Internal tension has created what sources describe as a "circular firing squad," with MAGA Inc. head James Blair and White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles trading blame for lagging GOP polling numbers.
- Following a controversial Bosnia trip in early October, Trump distanced himself from Blair and co-manager Chris LaCivita, labeling them "outside consultants" and warning he would "terminate them, immediately!" if conflicts of interest emerged.
- Amid this friction, Trump publicly defended Wiles on Friday, calling the Chief of Staff "smart" and "tough," while White House spokesman Davis Ingle dismissed infighting reports as "armchair experts peddling their baseless speculation."
- With the November 3 election approaching, Trump has repeatedly sought to distance himself from potential political setbacks, even as his approval rating remains at the lowest point of his presidency amid voter concerns over inflation and the Iran war.
