New York Times: Some close to the president believe he could try to replace Mr. Sessions with Mr. Giuliani in the coming months, although Mr. Giuliani would face an extremely difficult confirmation hearing in the Senate.
When Mr. Giuliani sought the secretary of state job, Trump advisers, including the presidents son-in-law, Jared Kushner, raised concerns about his business dealings and paid speeches to a shadowy Iranian opposition group that until 2012 was on the State Departments list of foreign terrorist organizations.

and they'll all be out of jobs. Haven't seen this team do a single smart thing since they've been in office.
