Donald Trump’s remaining White House advisers get into huge shouting match
Who’s running Donald Trump’s White House at this point? That’s far from clear. He’s only ever had a comparative skeleton crew of a staff, and as most of his original senior advisers have resigned or been fired or been indicted, he hasn’t even bothered to replace a lot of them. But even with just a handful of people left under Trump’s roof, things are uglier than ever. In fact two of Trump’s top remaining people just got into a heated shouting match.
Donald Trump’s White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, who is seemingly only still on the job because he’s a racist who hates immigrants, and Trump’s new White House National Security Adviser, who seemingly only took the job because he’s a racist who hates Muslims, got into what CNN is describing as a “shouting match” today which resulted in a “falling out.” The concern now is that one or both of them might resign.
So what, right? These guys are both villains. The trouble is this: Donald Trump is on his second Chief of Staff and his third National Security Adviser.

This comes one day after White House Counsel Don McGahn resigned,
