January 1, Trump Slams Fake Story As Left Panics Over Transition Team

Wyatt’s Take

• Trump hit back hard at the latest attempt to smear his incoming team.
• The media keeps pushing made-up stories to stir up chaos during the transition.
• Every time the left tries to divide the MAGA movement, Trump shuts them down fast.

President Trump called reports that he was thinking about firing Susie Wiles exactly what they were.

“a fake story”

.@POTUS: "The @SusieWiles47 story was a FAKE story. She has been incredible… They made up Fake News, they released it knowing it was a fake story. Susie is here — and she’s gonna be here for a long time." https://t.co/EBE6mEeFWt

The timing of the bogus report raised eyebrows across the country.

Critics on the left hoped to create daylight between Trump and his trusted chief of staff pick.

Instead, the quick denial showed the incoming administration remains united and focused.

Working families watching from the heartland have seen this pattern before.

Every time conservatives start making real progress, the same tired attacks roll out.

Wyatt Matters

Middle America knows the difference between honest reporting and desperate attempts to undermine the voters’ choice. When the media manufactures drama around strong leadership, it only proves how scared they are of real change coming to Washington.
