What a mess.

Itโ€™s frankly been pretty clear that Donald Trumpโ€™s life has been a bit of a mess since departing the White House a couple of months ago. And according to a report from POLITICO, things are just getting worse. Apparently, Donald Trumpโ€™s post-presidency political team is nothing but an absolute mess in pretty much every conceivable way โ€” full of backstabbing, deceit, blame games, and grabs for cash โ€” all of which has allegedly left Republican allies and donors rather irritated.

According to the report, some of the closest allies to the ex-president have personally encouraged Donald Trump to get rid of this disastrous team and the law firm that handled his 2020 campaign has even sent out a warning to note that former staffers and consultants were at serious risk of persecution should they misuse campaign funds in any way after an unnamed Republican candidate made unsolicited calls to one of Donald Trumpโ€™s top donorโ€™s cell phone.

One person thatโ€™s familiar with Trumpโ€™s post-presidency operation said, โ€œRight now, itโ€™s like a daycare if you took all the adults away. Thereโ€™s virtually nobody with organizational skills left.โ€

Of course, some of the former Presidentโ€™s top officials and White House aides โ€” such as Corey Lewandowski, Dave Bossie, Stephen Miller, and Mark Meadows โ€” have all since moved on with their professional lives and started their own endeavors, maintaining little to no contact with each other, though they all still reportedly maintain ties with the former president.

One person close to Donald Trump said, โ€œTrump is surrounded by people who are telling him โ€˜you need us,โ€™ but they really need him.โ€

One Trump aide told the publication that they found themselves surprised when one of their fellow aides took the credit for organizing a Mar-a-Lago fundraiser at a recent event, which set themselves up to be hired for similar future events.

โ€œI donโ€™t begrudge anyone for wanting to make money โ€ฆ but donโ€™t be so brazen about it,โ€ the aide told POLITICO.

Apparently, many of the aides closest to Trump have expressed their hopes that he stays out of politics until next yearโ€™s midterm elections have come around, however, his associates donโ€™t seem to be surprised that his post-presidency life is just as hectic and chaotic as his time in the White House.

โ€œTrump has always encouraged that kind of behavior,โ€ one former aide stated. โ€œBut it is difficult to do the job like that.โ€

Of course, Trumpโ€™s spokesman Jason Miller has insisted that the former presidentโ€™s orbit is in perfect harmony.

โ€œHaving been around Trump World for five years now, I would argue that hereโ€™s the least amount of ally competition or conflict at this point than Iโ€™ve ever seen,โ€ Miller stated. โ€œThe people who the president has kept in his orbit are all true believers who understand that he makes his own decisions, and we have very specific roles supporting him.โ€
