Well, if Ivanka's going to find the replacement-I'm sure all our problems are over...

[quote]Ivanka is also playing a central role in the search, quietly field-testing ideas with people. “Ivanka is the most worried about it. She’s trying to figure who replaces Kelly,” a person who’s spoken with her said.

Kelly’s departure likely isn’t imminent, sources said. “He wants to stay longer than Reince [Priebus],” an outside adviser said. Trump can also hardly afford another high-level staff departure, which would trigger days of negative news cycles. “This could be like [Jeff] Sessions,” one of the Republicans explained, referring to Trump’s festering frustration about not being able to replace his attorney general.

But the prospect of a Trump-Kelly rupture became more probable as news of their clashes over immigration leaked. Last week, Kelly reportedly infuriated Trump when he told Fox News that Trump had “evolved” on his position to build a southern border wall. Kelly further catalyzed Trump’s ire when he told Democratic lawmakers that Trump was “uninformed” when he made his campaign promise to build the wall. The next morning Trump rebutted his chief of staff with a tweet: “The Wall is the Wall, it has never changed or evolved from the first day I conceived of it.”

Well hey, it's not like Jared is busy. Give the man something to do. Or, you know, Ivanka could do it -- if you want the job done right, do it yourself, and all that.

I hope Kelly looks in the mirror and admits to himself that he's just like everyone else who thought they were so special that they could tame Trump. No one tames Trump. They just get sucked into his orbit and shat out in his wake. These people who accept jobs with him with the expectation of anything else are either idiots or delusional, no matter how smart or rational they may have been previously. Trump really is great ... at destroying things.[/quote]
