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.

1. Kellyann Conjob??? LOL!

[bucolic_frolic]

5. yes

that will be the choice. no sense in not going all in. Trump likes to shake things up, and she is an eggbeater.

[3Hotdogs]

2. I vote for Eric. It would make S.N.L. fodder.

[Wellstone ruled]

3. Mickey is not going anywhere soon.

Remember,he is one of the King Pins in the Tea Party and Trump needs these Suckers to survive in the short run. Mark Meadows is not about to see his pal go down in flames anytime soon. Same for Leningrad Lindsey.

8. I don't think that news will overshadow the testimony from today.

12. Bring back Sarah Huck. It's just an excuse position, anyway.

Bring back Sarah Huck. It's just an excuse position, anyway.

[YOHABLO]

13. Hey Kelly Anne what's your game now can anybody play? Just love her.

[NNadir]

14. I vote for Conway. Like her boss, she's a dumbbell, a liar, inarticulate, devoid of a thought...

...apparently senile and has a spouse who clearly has no real love for her.

Match made in hell, I say.

15. On Craigslist: Tremendous employment opportunity at White House. Must have tiny heart.

This is how the Craigslist job posting would read for replacing Mulvaney as White House Chief of Staff:

Tremendous employment opportunity at White House. Must have tiny heart, no conscience or ethics, with blind loyalty a must. Candidate must be of moderate intelligence, be able to resist telling the truth as needed. Do not anticipate tenure or long-term employment. Benefits are HUUUGE.
