The White House described a report published by the newspaper as false The Fresh York Instances where he assures that Susie Wiles, chief of staff, suggested to Vice President James David Vance take a break regarding the use of social networks to interact with citizens.
“In meetings, Mr. Vance frequently checks his phone and uses social media to argue with his critics. The president often posts on Reality Social, but he doesn’t spend time responding to people online, as Mr. Vance does.
Susie Wiles, Mr. Trump’s chief of staff, recently advised Mr. Vance to stay away from social media, as did other West Wing officials, according to people familiar with those interactions, because the disputes were below their level. (Mr. Vance said he took a break during Lent),” the news outlet detailed as part of the article titled “Is JD Vance the favorite for 2028?” “Trump has doubts.”
This information was later taken up by Josh Kraushaar, editor-in-chief of Jewish Insider, on his social networks, granting it veracity.
However, Steven Cheung, White House communications director, released a message on platform X, formerly Twitter, where he categorically rules out that what was stated about Susie Wiles and JD Vance was true.
“This is not true. We denied it to the Fresh York Instances and they refused to publish our quote. It is completely false news. This supposed ‘conversation’ never happened,” he emphasized.
The dissemination of the exposed information comes in a period of intense pressure for Vance, since after having failed in negotiations with Iranian diplomats to reach an agreement to end the war declared against him by the United States, on February 28, the vice president’s reputation suffered a severe blow.
Almost at the same time, the image of Marco Rubio, Secretary of State, was strengthened and the possibility of seeing him as a candidate for the Republican candidacy for president in 2028, once again monopolized the spaces of the American press.
In fact, the results of a survey conducted by the non-partisan public opinion and survey research center Emerson College Polling indicate that 36% of the people surveyed support the second in command of the White House; while 35% lean towards the first Latino to hold the position of Secretary of State.
