Fake News
The rumor reported by NBC News was called fake by the President who supported his Chief of Staff.
“I spend more time with the President than anyone else and we have an incredibly candid and strong relationship,” he said. “I am committed to the President, his agenda, and our Country.”
In a response to what was said about Kelly Trump made a tweet on twitter.
“The Fake News is going crazy making up false stories and using only unnamed sources (who don’t exist). They are totally unhinged …” he wrote.
Kelly added “this is another pathetic attempt to smear people close to President Trump and distract from the administration’s many successes.”
Reports from staffers within painted a different story, but at this stage it was a “my word against your” type of thing.
“He says stuff you can’t believe,” said one senior White House official. “He’ll say it and you think, ‘That is not what you should be saying.’”
“Kelly appears to be less engaged, which may be to the president’s detriment,” a second senior White House official said.
“He doesn’t even understand what DACA is. He’s an idiot,” Kelly said in one meeting, according to two officials. “We’ve got to save him from himself.”
This was just another sign of contention in the White House. Something Trump has denied saying that reports were false about problems in the administration.
Or maybe he was right and all of this was some outside sources trying to create mayhem within and make the people doubt.
Whatever was ongoing wasn’t good for the Country and some sort of clarity and transparency was needed.
