Donald Trump has for weeks been privately testing the idea of replacing his chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney, who’s swiftly fallen out of favor with some of the president’s allies after high-profile stumbles handling the House impeachment inquiry.

About a month ago, Trump said to Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin in front of a roomful of staff: You have such great ideas, why don’t you be my chief? He has made similar remarks about Chris Liddell, a deputy chief of staff at the White House, according to people familiar with the matter. He’s also asked advisers whether his counselor Kellyanne Conway would be a good chief of staff, other people said.

2. George might have to build a "Bad Ronald" safe space in his own house...

3. Kellyanne? Good gawd...

4. Chief of Staff Munchkin?

That has a nice ring to it...

5. ...

6. Oh please make it Conway, and screw you George.

[Mme. Defarge]

7. FABULOUS!

I simply cannot imagine two worse possibilities but I think that the munchkin would do him in faster than Kellyanne.

8. My immediate reaction was, but Tim Conway is dead.

Then I remembered he meant KellyAnne Conway. She's been so quiet lately that I forgot about her.

[genxlib]

9. Conway is perfectly suited for it

She agrees with everything he says.

I mean, that is what the CoS is supposed to do, right?

10. KA Conway -- does she really want to have to work?

Her only job now seems to be coming out on the driveway once in a while and robotically pushing some Trump nonsense. and probably she also has the task of assuring Trump that she loves him far more than she loves her anti-Trump husband.

She would have to actually work if she was chief of staff.

11. Rearranging the deck chairs on the Titantic, AGAIN.

I'm surprised he finds anybody stupid enough anymore. If they play the personal loyalty game for him, they just put themselves at risk of criminality. Guess its not a concern for those around him already neck deep in the criminality.

[NCjack]

12. Oh, YES. Either one. Both are fountains of brilliant ideas. nt

13. Kellyann Conjob is due a reward for all that lying.

[yellowcanine]

14. I am so hoping for Conway. She is capable of releasing some whopper stink bombs.

15. This administration is a not so merry-go-round of misfits, endlessly circling,

sharing the same pivot while each phony pony, nose to ass, goes up and down and up and down......

[dawnie51]

16. Conway or Mnuchin ?

He's really down to the very last few rats left on the ship now. There are no more choices, most rats have fled, and no new rats are willing to come aboard. Pretty damned sad.

17. If Mick still gets to be director of OMB then America still loses
