Breaking: General John F Kelly has been announced as the new WH Chief of Staff

[sargon]

In what dimension could Newt be Chief of Staff?

The "Loyalty and Competence" dimension...

[sargon]

Reince was alright for normal times.

These are not normal times.

This is a time of war.

Trump and the WH (and therefore we supporters) are at war with the media, the libs, islam, the GOPe, the Deep State, the RINO's...

Well said.

We are at war.

Any snowflakes who want to wax hysterical about issues of style and threaten to withdraw their support—or predict that others will—should go ahead and melt away right now, because "sunshine patriots" are not needed for this Revolution. This movement isn't about style—it's about substance. It's about crushing the Enemy—not appeasing it.

I've been disappointed with several things that have occurred in the first 6 months of this administration, but my support for President Trump isn't going to hinge on style; it's also not going to hinge on whether my favorite subordinates—or least favorite ones—keep their jobs or not. It's about people doing their jobs; it's about being loyal to this President in an environment where he can't even count on his own party; it's about subordinating personal opinions and hurt feelings in order to serve the greater good.

This is war, and we'd all better accept the fact that results are what matters—much more than wounded feelings.

ALL new administrations get a honeymoon period (except Pres. Trump of course) in which a new administration has time to get up and running.

But, there are always holdovers’ leaks and staffing issues. Even Ronald Reagan’s admin had the same problems. Tensions between his chief of staff, Donald Regan, and WH staffers were a constant source of daily reporting. The papers were full of it.

So no matter what President Trump does he will come under unfair criticism from the left and the right. President Trump is anathema to the creatures of the black lagoon.

Okay, then: her I.Q. is 3.5.

I was being generous.

I would like to see the exploding heads if Kris Kobach was nominated. As a former Ks/Mo boy I have followed him.

[KC Burke]

My 185 was also meant for you.

He will have to be reconfirmed.

[little jeremiah]

I could not agree with you more.

They’re filthy and playing dirty.

Trump said many times if someone hits him, he’ll hit back 10X harder.

I think it is Time.

I was a Tactics Instructor -- artillery, btw -- at TBS when Maj. Kelly was there as head of Offensive Tactics. I lack the superlatives to convey how highly I think of him.
