- Mick Mulvaney, former White House chief of staff, predicted current chief of staff Susie Wiles will leave her post after the midterm elections
- Mulvaney said Wiles is currently in a "powerful place" in the White House, per the source
- Mulvaney framed any departure as being on Wiles' own terms, even as reports have suggested she may have lost President Trump's confidence
- Mulvaney told the outlet "If she leaves, and I think she probably [will]" — signaling he views a post-midterms exit as likely
Why it matters: Wiles' tenure has been closely watched against reports of tension with Trump, and Mulvaney's prediction of a self-directed post-midterms exit would mean the administration faces another senior staff change at a politically pivotal moment heading into the second half of the term.
