Think he’ll use the ‘general housecleaning’ of staff as cover to clear the way for a Mueller firing?

What I mean by ‘clear the way’ is to get rid of Rosenstein and/or Sessions.


And who else might go?


No other cabinet members come to mind. I’m thinking west wing. Kelly, for example.

Yup. The VA has been a horror for at least a decade.

Wasn't he brought in to fix it?

How's that working out?

The problem is not Democrat or Republican. The problem is the culture of "I work for the government and I don't give a shit."

Not a story I've been following. Haven't a clue whether the VA problems are being addressed or not.

I thought he was generally well-regarded, but apparently he's run into trouble in recent months, justified or not I don't know.

Sesssions is doomed. He’s been writing checks he can’t cash for quite a while and the Republican president hates him.

It’s a smarter businessman who hires the right people the first time and then stands behind them.

Have you ever run a business, Larry?

Yep. I can't speak for anywhere else, but in Cincinnati the VA, has been one big affirmative action program for decades. Couple that with unionization and it shows.

Yes, but it's obvious you haven't, if you think it's possible to "hire the right people the first time and then stand behind them".

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy

Hey now. He’s a businessman. That means he knows everything you know, and even more than that, he’s very smart actually. He has all the best words.

McMaster.

Quote:
 
President Trump has decided to remove H.R. McMaster as his national security adviser and is actively discussing potential replacements, according to five people with knowledge of the plans, preparing to deliver yet another jolt to the senior ranks of his administration.

Trump is now comfortable with ousting McMaster, with whom he never personally gelled, but is willing to take time executing the move because he wants to ensure both that the three-star Army general is not humiliated and that there is a strong successor lined up, these people said.

The turbulence is part of a broader potential shake-up under consideration by Trump that is likely to include senior officials at the White House, where staffers are gripped by fear and un­certainty as they await the next move from an impulsive president who enjoys stoking conflict.

For all of the evident disorder, Trump feels emboldened, advisers said — buoyed by what he views as triumphant decisions last week to impose tariffs on steel and aluminum and to agree to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. The president is enjoying the process of assessing his team and making changes, tightening his inner circle to those he considers survivors and who respect his unconventional style, one senior White House official said.

Just days ago, Trump used Twitter to fire Rex Tillerson, the secretary of state whom he disliked, and moved to install his close ally, CIA Director Mike Pompeo, in the job. On Wednesday, he named conservative TV analyst Larry Kudlow to replace his top economic adviser, Gary Cohn, who quit over trade disagreements.

My first thought when I saw this earlier today was that McMaster seems to want to hasten his exit:

Republican President? What Republican President? I haven't see a Republican President since Bush.
