CNN covering Kelly on the chopping block, he is like a Janitor

...

Any other news of other channel ?


http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/06/politics/rex-tillerson-john-kelly-white-house/index.html

The President was so furious at the situation, multiple sources told CNN, that chief of staff John Kelly was forced to navigate between two men who are, at this point, fed up with each other.
Kelly suggested to the President in a nuanced way that if Secretary of State Rex Tillerson left, the retired general's own ability to do his job properly could be at risk, sources familiar with the conversation said.
The discussion between the President and his top aide came as whispers about how long Kelly is going to last are getting louder.
"Every day for John Kelly ends in 'why?' Every day is tense," a source close to the President said, referring to the struggles Kelly faces.
The White House did not respond to a CNN request to comment.
This week's West Wing drama starred Tillerson -- one of Kelly's chief allies within the administration -- who found himself Wednesday on national television publicly proclaiming his loyalty to Trump after reportedly calling him a "moron" in private.

Tillerson doesn't realize apparently that if DJT starts a war in Asia, Tillerson goes down in history as Goering. Or Himmler.

That's just so common a term which could be said just about anybody. A throw away.

While Trump may be "smart", he lacks wisdom, both theoretical and practical, and is arrogant in his ignorance. He's a moron.
