The “bombshell” quotes being highlighted by other outlets such as The Hill are largely taken out of context, and the interview, for the most part, portrays Wiles as a loyal and fawning Trump servant. (Not that that is a good thing, but it is probably closer to the truth than what is being highlighted)

The “alcoholic personality” quote is probably the trickiest one for her to finesse.
