Word from the White House is that Ivanka is looking for a replacement for Chief of Staff John Kelly; she and Jared have been at odds with him for a long time. Trump has supported the lies on Fox Noise, while criticizing his own National Security Adviser, H.R. McMaster, and virtually all of our nation’s security agencies. McMaster may be on his way out as well.

Kelly and Trump share beliefs in white supremacy, xenophobia, ‘a woman’s place,’ and the LGBTQ community. However, Kelly has frequently attempted to control Trump’s weak temperament, and the orange man is a control freak who resents Kelly’s efforts.

The situation McMaster finds himself is unique. Information from the Pentagon is that Trump wants to remove McMaster from the White House and return him to the military with a promotion. The military brass is somewhat reluctant. They feel that his position in Trump’s administration has ‘politicized’ the general, and finding him a suitable position in the Pentagon will be difficult.

This was the only statement from a Pentagon spokesperson.

“General McMaster works for President Trump. Any decision with regards to staff, the White House will make those determinations,” chief spokesperson Dana White said.

The only way any individual has job security in Trump’s administration is if she or he is a family member. Everyone else is and has been expendable. This is the Washington mafia.

Trump is not a man who is easy to work with. He has a quick temper, a fragile ego, and is a complete control freak; unwilling to accept advice from anyone else. The only people he trusts are his family. If he is ever accurately diagnosed, he will certainly be diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic.

With the exception of his family, Trump is alone in the world. He makes it impossible to have true friends. Trump uses others, but is not intelligent enough to understand that they use him as well.

I have lost track of the number of men and women who have left the White House, after being fired or by choice.

Time to return Washington to some form of normalcy. Let’s begin by removing Republicans from office, and replacing them with women and a few men who place the welfare of the majority at the top of their list of priorities.

November 6^th is coming soon.
