Secretary of State Rex Tillerson is gone. Fired! Canned! Kaput!
Now it’s national security adviser H.R. McMaster, the active-duty Army lieutenant general, who’s reportedly out. He, too, will be booted, according to multiple media reports.
In the span of one week — that’s just seven days — Donald Trump reportedly has dismantled two key components of his national security/foreign policy team.
Oh, and the timing of all this madness? Yep, the president is supposedly prepping for a summit with “Little Rocket Man,” the North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.
McMaster is the second national security adviser to work for Trump in the past 14 months. The first one, Michael Flynn, lasted all of 24 days before he got the boot.
And through all of this, Donald Trump would have us believe that all is well, all is good, all is working just as it is supposed to work within the White House.
I, um, think not.
Chaos is king in the West Wing.
