National security adviser Robert O’Brien has also “emerged as one of Trump’s biggest enablers at a decisive moment,” the Daily Beast reports.
“Asked if officials in the White House feel comfortable saying Biden’s name in the West Wing, one senior White House official said, half-jokingly, ‘Sure, you can say his name. If you’re talking about who lost the election to the president.’”
Said another national security official: “If you even mention Biden’s name … that’s a no-go, you’d be fired. Everyone is scared of even talking about the chance of working with the transition.”
