Trump says chief of staff John Kelly to leave at year's end

Trump firing the adults that have been babysitting him? What a shocker. Wake me up when there's actual news like Trump telling the truth.

You can render one final service to the United States. Tell the truth about that lying bum.

One of the last few adults supervising the kindergarten - this is not good....

The Mango Misogynist has one less professional to tell him "you're breaking the law Mr President"....

Replacement: Steve Doocey....

You can't make this stuff up...

Word has it that the two "aren't talking" and that Kelly, stripped of influence, spends a lot of time simply exercising. So much for "my generals." One wonders how long it will be until Trump goes full Tillis on Kelly - Kelly's got a lot to disclose, and Trump's current friendly words are an attempt to dissuade him from doing so. With Kelly, it probably won't work.

In under 2 years, Trump is already on his 5th Communications Director (Trump obviously has communication issues!), his 3rd National Security Adviser, and his 3rd Chief of Staff. All people he appointed. Anyone with half a brain realizes his administration, people skills and judgement are an absolute disaster.

I hope they bring back the Mooch.

"You can render one final service to the United States. Tell the truth about that lying bum."

Who? Cohen?

I hope they bring back the Mooch.

Hah, I don't see it happening, but I actually kind of like him. I saw him on a couple shows after he got canned, he's kind of funny.

@Stranger - Yeah, the Mooch himself said the other day he has zero chance of going back to the WH.

He is funny, plus he wrote an enlightening book, "The Blue Collar President."

Kelly served over 500 days. More than several chiefs of staff in the previous administration combined.

We don’t know what or the reason why and Kelly serves at the pleasure of the President so for whatever reason if he feel he doesn’t need or want Kelly, then out he goes, simple as that.

Well, if Kelly starts lying on the President, then he probably will, no doubt about it.

and Trump's current friendly words are an attempt to dissuade him from doing so. With Kelly, it probably won't work.

Or it could very well be the other way around.
