Trump insists there is 'zero chance' he replaces Susie Wiles as five rivals are named on secret succession list

President Trump publicly declared Wiles "phenomenal" and said she is "going to be here for a long time" on Friday, even as three warring factions are reportedly already scrambling to succeed her after the midterms. The White House is reportedly "jittery" with infighting, after Trump bypassed Wiles on a hiring decision and expressed fury over a Balkans trip taken by two of her close advisers. Five named contenders — Stephen Miller, Bill Pulte, Steve Witkoff, Brooke Rollins and Mike Needham — are reportedly on a circulating shortlist, with wildcard John McEntee prowling outside all three factions.

MAGA loyalists back Miller or Pulte, who would mark a sharp break from Wiles' tightly controlled operation.

Jared Kushner allies are pushing special envoy Steve Witkoff and Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins as their preferred candidates.

McEntee, who once purged officials deemed disloyal in Trump's first term, recently broke an 18-month social media silence with photos alongside Trump, captioned 'Patriots in control.'
