Trump says he has ‘good relationship’ with chief of staff
President Donald Trump said Friday that he gets along well with his embattled White House chief of staff but doesn’t know how long John Kelly will remain in the job.
Kelly has been back in the spotlight this week as word surfaced that the president has been sounding out allies about potential replacements for the retired four-star general. Kelly is credited with bringing order to the West Wing but also grates on the freewheeling president.
Asked about all the speculation, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One that “we’re getting along very well.” But he added: “Look, at some point, things happen but I will tell you … we have a very good relationship. He’s a wonderful man.”
