I Know Why Everyone Talks About Trump’s Diapers | Inside Trump’s Head

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles dig into Karoline Leavitt’s departure from the White House, the scramble to replace her, and what her exit reveals about the brutal demands of working directly for Donald Trump. They also confront the bizarre obsession with Trump’s health and ponder whether the 80-year-old president wears diapers, dissect the elaborate decoy-plane operation as another example of Trump’s need to dominate the news cycle, and examine his determination to remake the White House into a monument to himself. Wolff and Coles also look at Jeanine Pirro’s increasingly creative efforts to satisfy Trump through a special grand jury, the growing pressure around the midterms, and the increasingly valuable business of being close to Trump while his power is at its peak.
