Summary

Trump’s transition team is reportedly mired in infighting at Mar-a-Lago, with factions clashing over control and strategy for his return to the White House.

The Washington Post detailed heated disputes, including shouting matches, name-calling, and physical altercations.

Three key factions have emerged: one led by Donald Trump Jr. and JD Vance, another by Trump ally Susie Wiles, and a third by Linda McMahon.

High-profile confrontations involve figures like Boris Epshteyn, Elon Musk, and Vance, highlighting tensions over Cabinet picks and leaks, further fracturing the team.

    Media companies have realized what foreign governments have known for years. If you want all the inside knowledge of what goes on in the Trump White House, send a spy to Mar-a-lago. You don’t need clandestine agents when Trump and his crew discuss all this stuff openly, and all you have to do is pay to get in.

      Hell, the dipshits willingly talked to the Watergate guy who ended up writing a book about it (instead of actually telling people about the shit, because that doesn’t make you money).

        What? Woodward and Bernstein were told about the investigation by an associate director of the FBI.

        It was already a crime being investigated by the FBI before the articles. Deep Throat was a high ranking FBI agent.

        Some of yall need to read a little history if you’re going to base opinions on it because everything you said is wrong.

          I think he’s talking the more recent stuff in which donvict’s people talked to Woodward, but Woodward held all that information from the American people, only to release it in a book later…
