Comfortably Smug

What do you mean?

Trump was doing the lawfare prior to that.

Critics have compared this moment to a Reichstag fire, a modern version of Hitler's exploitation of the torching of Berlin's parliament, that Trump is using Charlie's assassination in the way Hitler used the Reichstag fire.

This is unbelievable.

This guy's really showing us his cards, right?

So I'll give you a couple more.

We talked about how he quotes her saying Trump's got sort of an alcoholic's personality.

He also includes the detail that back in 2016, Trump berated her in front of a gaggle of cronies.

Wiles told him, quote, it was a horrific hour plus at midnight, and I don't think I've seen him that angry since.

He was ranting and raving, and I didn't know whether to argue back or whether to be stoic.

What I really wanted to do was cry.

And then she kind of stood him down like, OK, again, I'm sure these aren't like her favorite details to read in print.

It is in here that she worked for DeSantis and got him elected governor in 2018.

And then he turned on her, denouncing Wiles publicly and badmouthing her privately.

To this day, Wiles doesn't know what triggered the governor's vendetta.

Quote, I think he thought I was getting too much attention.

Which is ironic.

I don't ever seek attention, which is true of her.

But, I mean, 11 interviews with Vanity Fair, you know, kind of cuts against the narrative.

By the way, I do know she can't stand Ron DeSantis.
