Trump’s chief of staff John Kelly is expected to resign as early as today according to White House insiders. Reports indicate that Trump and Kelly are no longer on speaking terms.
According to The Daily Mail:
White House insiders expect Chief of Staff John Kelly to resign in the coming days.
Sources told DailyMail.com that Kelly, a decorated Marine Corps general brought in last year, is ‘expected’ to leave the White House before the end of the year, and the announcement could come as soon as Friday.
His expected replacement is Nick Ayers, the young chief of staff to Vice President Mike Pence.
A source familiar with the situation told DailyMail.com on Friday morning that a dinner at the White House in the evening for senior staff was supposed to serve as an appreciation event for Kelly and other departing senior officials.
President Trump could make the announcement today. But both parties have realized that the relationship is no longer sustainable and will move on.
