Susie Wiles, US President Donald Trump’s highly influential chief of staff, has appeared to criticise him and many members of his administration in a wide-ranging series of interviews with Vanity Fair.

She said the president had an “alcoholic’s personality,” described Vice President JD Vance as a calculating “conspiracy theorist”, and Health Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr as “quirky Bobby.”
