Discussion: Trump Names Mick Mulvaney Acting White House Chief Of Staff

Will he actually make it to Day 1?

If I could, Iā€™d give this a gazillion likes.

Point taken.

However the potential damage is somewhat mitigated by the increasing complete lack of functionality of the so-called prez. And T-boy is hardest on those who are in closest proximity to him.

Mulvaney may be infinitely more effective when he is not in T-rumpusā€™ immediate orbit.

He is not going to increase in efficiency next to the increasingly unstable Oval Office Occupant.

Unpossible! :smile: Haha yeah maybe he just wanted to get off the merry-go-round of name floating/being turned down. People get married for similar reasons; naming an ā€œactingā€ chief of staff is obviously less of a commitment.

Well Mick , you will now need to order thousands of boxes of diapers PLUS thousands of boxes of surgical gloves ( for when you change his diapers ) .

ā€œActingā€ probably means Mick didnā€™t even know he was offered the role before Trump blurted it out.

Trump was so worried that it looked bad with nobody wanting the job. But it looks even worse to canablize your existing freaking staff to fill vacancies.

For the record, there were MANY people who wanted to be the White House Chief of Staffā€¦

I hear he does card tricks, too.

The plot thickens; it turned out later last night it was Mulvaneyā€™s idea to be ā€œactingā€ CoS. Hasnā€™t given up his old position, which will be run by a subordinate while he retains that title too. Sounds ridiculous but I guess if he runs into trouble he imagines heā€™ll just walk back to his old office and pretend it all never happened?

Holy shit Zinkeā€™s out. The hits just keep coming.

This is great. ACTING chief of staff. Most people would kill for this job but the best Whiny could do was some Southern clodhopper agreeing to be the ACTING chief of staff.
First he gets that crooked redneck Pruitt and his Cone of Silence to run the EPA, now this Cracker.
Sure, our last smart President had three chiefs of staff too but he didnā€™t have them all in his first two years.

Palpatine said it better.

Itā€™s another example of Trumpā€™s contributions to the environment. He keeps recycling the diminishing number of administration officials who have not yet been indicted or decided to leave before being struck by lightening. Who wants to jump on a train in the process of falling off a bridge while engulfed in flames? Well, I guess some of them clearly are dumb enough ā€¦

Iā€™m excited to see how he bashes Mulvaney on the way out the door.
