President Donald Trump is reportedly looking for a new White House chief of staff to replace Gen. John Kelly, according to a report in Vanity Fair.
Gabriel Sherman claims that he spoke to two prominent Republicans who confirmed that Trump’s relationship with Kelly has “gone past the point of no return,” and Trump is now actively looking for a successor.Trump’s daughter Ivanka is allegedly taking a central role in the search, with figures such as political operative David Urban currently being considered.
Kelly, who was appointed as White House chief of staff last July as a replacement for Reince Priebus, apparently infuriated Trump when he falsely claimed that Trump’s views on the construction of a wall on the southern border had “evolved,” a position which Trump quickly denied.
“The Wall is the Wall, it has never changed or evolved from the first day I conceived of it,” Trump responded.

I have no idea what triggered Kelly's comments about the wall, but I do think he is one of the indispensable people working for Trump. Trump is spontaneous to a fault. Kelly is the opposite. Kelly addresses Trumps weaknesses. I hope Trump realizes that.
ReplyDeleteNo way he should have mentioned that.
