Trump's relationship with his chief of staff has reached a stalemate and is no longer seen as tenable by either party as the two have stopped speaking in recent days.
Trump has begun to envy the smoothly operating vice president's office, which Ayers has managed to keep distanced from the daily scrum and scandal of the White House. Ayers has cultivated key allies, including Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner. He also boasts an impressive track record in Republican politics that could serve the President well in the run-up to his 2020 re-election.
But Ayers' meteoric rise has also earned him his fair share of critics, including a few inside the White House. While plans were floated in November for Ayers to become the new chief of staff, multiple sources told CNN, they stalled amid the President's reluctance to fire Kelly -- who typically does the firing for Trump -- and the backbiting Ayers has faced from some of his West Wing colleagues. Several of Trump's top advisers have voiced concerns to him about Ayers, with some threatening to quit if he is tapped for the job. One of Ayers' top West Wing detractors during the process has been Kellyanne Conway, the combative counselor to the President who vehemently opposed Ayers' hire as Pence's chief of staff last year, two former White House officials and a source familiar with the matter said.
Conway disputes those allegations, telling CNN: "I have zero beef with Nick Ayers."
Outside the White House, former colleagues of Ayers say his relative youth and outsized ego -- conspicuous even in a world known for naked ambition and self-aggrandizement -- have rubbed fellow political operatives the wrong way. His allies say that people are just jealous or insecure.

Loyal?
He’s a total creature of the RNC/GOPe.
Kellyanne could have zero beef with Ayers but still rightly warned Trump against making him his CoS.
Running Pence’s office is like running a Dairy Queen. He doesnt have all the RINO traitors
This a CNN. Does anyone really believe this?
It worries me that CNN is running a favorable article on him. I would rather they were trash talking...
There’s an EASY PEASY loyalty test for all these Swamp creatures, just ask them 1) How do you feel about the wall?; and 2) Please put on this red MAGA hat and take a selfie with me. Swampees will fail both.

LOL. Always consider the source.
I attended a very good boys prep school back around 1960. The real smart kids there used to use that phrase, "consider the source" all the time as a putdown. It was pretty funny and very true.
Hes a total creature of the RNC/GOPe.
______________
I read about this young guy. He may surprise you with his effectiveness and loyalty to Trump.
Then again, I may be surprised if he sucks.
First ....... he has to actually be named.
:-)
President Donald Trump is the leader of the GOP that is transformed into GOPt
Your animosity is archaic.
_______________
I wouldn't say that the title is "favorable".
By the way, how "rich" is he???
Why would anyone go near any administration job? You know you and your family are liable to be attacked and savaged by the entire world press, Hollyweird, the DOJ, FBI, many state AGs, multiple congressional committees, violent mobs in the street and eventually others within the administration. Of course the president will have your back with an occasional meaningless tweet.
Kellyanne ought to think about muzzling her $%^thead husband instead of going after the new chief of staff.
Sounds like you’re a Deep Stater yourself!
And (fame and) power draws the ambitious.
But anyone who is part of team Javanka shouldn’t be allowed near the position.
"Just imagine the possibilities of what can happen if our entire party unifies behind him? If and this sounds crass we can purge the handful of people who continue to work to defeat him," he told the donors.

kinda red flagged on the company ivanka & jared keep..
imo, they’ve always been too chummy with libs like clintonista lawyer, jamie gorelick

yup kellyanne has been critically essential.
she has a great handle on how to deal with DC
I value her judgement, and it would be devastating, imo, to lose her from 2020.
Have you bothered to warn President Trump? I’m sure he wants to hear from you.
