Joe Scarborough: WH insider claims 'more unflattering stories' about John Kelly are about to drop

Joe Scarborough: ‘White House insider’ claims ‘more unflattering stories’ about John Kelly are about to drop

"Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough on Sunday sent out a mysterious tweet claiming that “White House insiders” believe that chief of staff John Kelly’s days working for President Donald Trump are numbered.

Despite the fact that White House surrogates on Sunday insisted that the president still has confidence in his chief of staff, Scarborough believes the reality behind the scenes is quite different.




Although Kelly has been credited with instilling more discipline in what had been a completely chaotic White House, his handling of the Rob Porter scandal has led to a cascade of negative leaks questioning his fitness for the job.

First Daughter Ivanka Trump and husband Jared Kushner have reportedly been the most eager to see Kelly ousted, as reports suggest they feel that the chief of staff has limited their access to the president.

If drumpf dumps him it is only because he has become a liability but deep down he and drumpf are two peas in a pod and drumpf loves him for it. Just like he loved Flynn but had to fire him to protect his own image.

Kelly is one of the only people holding Trump back from nuking someone. Kelly is a slime ball, but he's at least sane. They could replace him with someone who urges Trump to start more wars.
