Chief of Staff or Stuff?

Submitted by ub on

The real question is what stuff? Has the general turned into the chief stiff, of chief cook and bottle washer at The White House?

Celebrating one year on the job is another one of POTUS great hires, General John Francis Kelly who is a retired United States Marine Corps decorated officer and has been serving as White House Chief of Staff for President Donald Trump, since July 31, 2017. He previously served POTUS as Secretary of Homeland Security. Is he a COSNO - Chief of staff in name only?

When the general tried to impose some order, restricting access to Trump, pruning disruptive aides and urging the president to place his calls through the White House operator, attempts to implement control has failed. Sadly, he's been described as a punching bag.
