Ex-aide reveals Trump operatives fighting to keep his 'chaos and crazy' out of limelight
Donald Trump’s top operatives are desperately trying to keep him out of the public eye in an effort to hide the “chaos and the crazy” from voters, a former aide said Wednesday.
Alyssa Farah Griffin, who served as communications director in the former president’s White House, told CNN there are two “sophisticated” people on Trump’s staff who are trying to steer him away from the limelight.
“Those two individuals know that keeping Trump out of the public eye is actually the best thing they can do,” she said. “He's not out giving huge rallies in the way that he was at this time in 2020. We're going to see that tick up. He's not on Twitter. He's not giving big sit down interviews, he’s not on mainstream media on a regular basis. So I think the public is forgetting the chaos and the crazy of Trump. That's reflected in some of the poll numbers we're seeing in how much he's surpassing his challengers. The more that people see him, the more they remember.”
She added, “They know when to reel him in, when Donald Trump says things like leaning into he's going to be a dictator, they know to walk him back."

Unfortunately for Trump’s campaign, however, not everybody surrounding Trump is as smart, she said.
“I don't want to overstate this notion he has a sophisticated team around him," she contended. "Beyond the two individuals, it's probably a mishmash of folks that have been clinging to him or those that stayed after January 6th."
And even for the best operative, the boss is not controllable.
"The best operative in the world can not convince him to not be his own worst enemy," Griffin said.
