“TRUMP IS GOING FOR A CLEAN RESET”: FUMING IN THE WEST WING, TRUMP PREPARES TO DEFENESTRATE CUCK ALLIES AND GO FULL MAGA
The president will meet with potential chief-of-staff candidates at Mar-a-Lago next weekend. McMaster is likely next to go. Then Jivanka.

Even before he decided to launch a trade war and roll the nuclear dice by agreeing in the course of a West Wing afternoon to a risky sit-down with Kim Jong Un, Donald Trump was telling friends he was tired of being reined in. “I’m doing great, but I’m getting all these bad headlines,” Trump told a friend recently. A Republican in frequent contact with the White House told me Trump is “frustrated by all these people telling him what to do.”

With the departures of Hope Hicks and Gary Cohn, the Trump presidency is entering a new phase—one in which Trump is feeling liberated to act on his impulses. “Trump is in command. He’s been in the job more than a year now. He knows how the levers of power work. He doesn’t give a fuck,” the Republican said. Trump’s decision to circumvent the policy process and impose tariffs on imported steel and aluminum reflects his emboldened desire to follow his impulses and defy his advisers. “It was like a fuck-you to Kelly,” a Trump friend said. “Trump is red-hot about Kelly trying to control him.”

According to five Republicans close to the White House, Trump has diagnosed the problem as having the wrong team around him and is looking to replace his senior staff in the coming weeks. “Trump is going for a clean reset, but he needs to do it in a way that’s systemic so it doesn’t look like it’s chaos,” one Republican said.

Sources said that the first officials to go will be Chief of Staff John Kelly and National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster, both of whom Trump has clashed with for months. On Tuesday, Trump met with John Bolton in the Oval Office. When he plans to visit Mar-a-Lago next weekend, Trump is expected to interview more candidates for both positions, according to two sources. “He’s going for a clean slate,” one source said. Cohn had been lobbying to replace Kelly as chief, two sources said, and quit when he didn’t get the job. “Trump laughed at Gary when he brought it up,” one outside adviser to the White House said. (The White House declined to comment.) Next on the departure list are Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump. Trump remains fiercely loyal to his family, but various distractions have eroded their efficacy within the administration.

Things are about to get very Stormy.

So with all of the official "babysitters" leaving what could go wrong?

More chaos, chaos all the time. Pure idiocy.

1. If he wants a headline that everyone in the world will applaud

He should resign.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. Whenever tRump does what he wants, chaos follows.

And if he manages to surround himself with "yes" men, things will go downhill fast.

[forgotmylogin]

18. Because the President's job is to do whatever they want...

and not execute the will of the people.

45 is so stupid as to not understand "if every single person disagrees with you, you are more than likely the one who is wrong..."

[drray23]

3. VF ? What is that ? nt.

[grantcart]

4. Vanity Fair. My bad, forgot the link, now added

[angrychair]

5. Source link pls

And thank you

[grantcart]

7. Done, sorry

[angrychair]

9. Thanks Grantcart!

[pangaia]

6. We need to stop talking about trump and put out there that it is REPUBLICANS

who are responsible for this total disaster.. !!!

Hang THEM with it.

[Crash2Parties]

14. Agreed. The GOP Congress could put the brakes on him any day they choose.

And each day, they choose not to do so.

[grantcart]

8. Funny but revealing quote at the end.

Another source said Trump has felt newfound validation after a CPAC straw poll last month showed him with a 93 percent approval rating. “He felt the crowd desiring more,” a Republican close to the White House said. “He knows there’s going to be a battle ahead.”

[procon]

10. We should start a pool on when he demands to be addressed as "Your Majesty". nt

[Laura PourMeADrink]

11. There have been rumors about Jared and Ivanka..I honestly

Think it's about him thinking he is protecting them by getting them away from WH. Like if they are away Mueller can't get them

[Mr.Bill]

12. I really think they will be

leaving the country very soon. As in not coming back.

[BobTheSubgenius]

16. We can only hope.

[Mr.Bill]

17. No, I want them in jail.

For a long time. It would piss me of if some country offered them asylum and they lived like kings there.

[area51]

20. I hope Trump returns to Mother Russia. n/t

[Hassler]

13. Stormy Weather...

[BigmanPigman]

15. That's not all...

McMaster can be going along with them.

19. Of course, the problem is everything but himself.

Trump has diagnosed the problem as having the wrong team around him

[SammyWinstonJack]

25. But he hires the best people

[lunatica]

21. This might just be what we need

Let him be unleashed and then find himself fighting the Judiciary AND the Republicans.

The only reason they’re backing him is so they can get whatever they want. Once that stops so will their support. And the worse he acts the more Democrats will win next November.

He’s also going to lose any support he has left from the military. They’ve already ignored his blathering about Transexuals not being allowed to serve, and they want to ignore his demands for a parade.

Getting rid of Jared and Ivanka isn’t going to help him much.

[struggle4progress]

22. "I think it's time again to bring in yet another gang of clueless fuckwits!"

[grantcart]

24. or recycling the old fuckwits

[Exotica]

30. Paging John Bolton

[longship]

31. Goo Goo G'Joob!!!

[sunonmars]

23. Gorka is meant to be gone too but apparently he was dining in the WH with Tramp this week....

[still_one]

26. The problem is the republican majority will NOT do anything to stop him, including destroying the

world

[Progressive dog]

27. The orange psychopath continues

to spit on the law. The RW nut-job "babysitters" are only slightly more stable than the narcissist in chief.

[Flaleftist]

28. The wrong team? Thats weird.

Because Trump is so smart and only hires the best people.

[rock]

29. The freak thinks he's doing great

He should never attend a carnival, he's libel to wind up in a cage in diapers on the main fairway!

[workinclasszero]

32. "Things are about to get very Stormy."

Very.

In more ways than one. LOL

[CincyDem]

33. Looks like he knows he'll need a big chaos push to control the news cycles for a while. n/t
