Trump insider reveals Cabinet head 'too dumb' to save themselves from disaster

The ongoing disasters of President Donald Trump's second term in office have left many of his closest administration cronies "rattled," according to a biographer with close ties to the White House, leaving them shaken about their future political ambitions and "scrambling" to find solutions.

Michael Wolff is a veteran reporter and author, best known for a series of tell-all biographies detailing the chaos of Trump's first term, based on inside sources within the White House. During the most recent episode of his Daily Beast podcast, "Inside Trump's Head," Wolff revealed how spooked those within the administration are about Trump's disastrous decisions as president, especially the war in Iran, and what they fear it might mean for their futures.

Wolff based these revelations on conversations from Wednesday with one of his anonymous, "highly placed" White House sources, who said they have seen many top officials "rattled about everything."

"This person has never seen so many people in the seat of power, let’s say, who are so rattled —rattled about everything," Wolff detailed. "Rattled about their own careers, rattled about what happens tomorrow, and at some level, rattled about how the government continues to operate, and... rattled about the fate of the country."

He further added, "This person also says that ‘no one is getting a clear message from POTUS," and suggested that Trump himself "is also probably rattled" by the current state of affairs.

"He doesn’t know what’s going on," Wolff added. "He does not know what to do. He, at some level, recognizes that he has gotten himself into a corner which he can’t get out of."

In response to this mess, Wolff reported that several top administration officials are "plotting" how to save their own skin and political futures from the stain of Trump's presidency. He also singled out one top official, however, as "too dumb" to plot properly, and another who does not have the skill to effectively plan their escape.

"This person who I was speaking to yesterday described it as... ‘everybody’s plotting," Wolff continued. “Marco Rubio is plotting, Hegseth is plotting, Jared Kushner is plotting, and JD Vance is plotting, but JD Vance doesn’t really know how to plot."

Noting that many of these figures are also attempting to distance themselves from the Iran debacle, Wolff added, "The only one not trying to retreat is Pete Hegseth—[who is] too dumb to know that he has to retreat."
