More White House Vacancies: Kelly & McMaster Up Next then Ivanka and Jared Maybe

Kelly: Before you pack and leave, process these two out
/s/ CinC


Hey, you two, listen up - FLASH from the Oval Office:

Trump asked Chief of Staff John Kelly o remove Ivanka and Jared Kushner –

A NY Times column (here in total) by Maggie Haberman and Mark Landler claims President Donald Trump asked his chief of staff John Kelly for help in ousting first daughter Ivanka Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner from their advisory roles at the White House.

The column alleges that Trump’s managerial style, dubbed “chaos theory” by the writers, has caused emotional grief for the White House staff. It further claims that aides have “expressed frustration” that Kushner and Ivanka Trump have remained as senior advisers and that President Trump has “privately asked” Kelly for help in moving them out.

It is unclear if the president is asking them to leave out of compassion or, as the Times hints, concerns about Kushner’s potential legal issues over various business dealings. The Times story also reports that President Trump has spoken to Kushner and Ivanka Trump and asked them to stay on at the White House but privately has claimed they “never should have come” to work there. Thus, he has asked Kelly to be the instigator of their departure.

Kushner’s security clearance was downgraded this week, hampering his role as a senior adviser, while Ivanka Trump has just returned from representing the U.S. at the Winter Olympics Closing Ceremony.

The column’s allegations continue a tumultuous week at the White House, with communications director Hope Hicks, another close presidential adviser, resigning her post.

My 2 cents: A simple wow and then maybe good riddance — in my professional opinion. So, who's next in line?

What a mess this White House and by extension the Congress and country, too, are facing. Unproductive and incompetent are two words that come to mind quickly.

Thanks for stopping by.
