In Michael Wolff's book "Siege: Trump Under Fire," the author explores the dynamics of the Trump administration, emphasizing the contrasting perspectives of key figures like Nancy Pelosi and Steve Bannon. Bannon believed that Pelosi, despite her political opposition, recognized a significant reality: the Trump administration's shortcomings would ultimately lead to its own downfall.

This insight reveals a broader theme in the political landscape at the time, where the perceived chaos and internal conflicts within Trump’s presidency were seen as self-destructive. Wolff illustrates how both sides understood that, rather than external forces, it was the administration's own actions and decisions that would ensure its unraveling.
