People are leaving the Trump White House in record numbers - CNNPolitics
More than one in three Trump administration staffers have left the White House in its first year, a pace that far eclipses the rate of departures in the previous five White Houses, according to a study done by Kathryn Dunn Tenpas of the Brookings Institute.
The pace of resignations, firings and other assorted departures from the Trump White House is twice what it was in George W. Bush's first year as president and triple that of Barack Obama's first year in office.
And, it's not just any sorts of departures; a large number of Trump's senior-most staff have left in the first year alone. Writes Dunn Tenpas:
"Six of the 12 Tier One positions saw turnover (Reince Priebus, chief of staff; Katie Walsh, deputy chief of staff; Sean Spicer, press secretary; George Sifakis, assistant to the president and director of the Office of Public Liaison; Michael Flynn, national security adviser, and KT McFarland, deputy national security adviser). By comparison, Obama lost one adviser from Tier One (Greg Craig, White House counsel), and George W. Bush did not see any turnover in these high-level positions."
And her paper came out in mid-January -- meaning that Dunn Tenpas missed a number of more recent departures, including former staff secretary Rob Porter; Rachel Brand, the third-ranking official in the Justice Department; and speechwriter David Sorensen, all of whom left in the last week.
...and this list doesn't include Hope Hicks who announced her resignation today (The White House communications director) or Josh Raffel (The White House deputy communications director) who announced his resignation Feb. 27th. :eek:

The frequency of departures from Trump's White House is more befitting of his reality show The Apprentice where every week audiences tuned in to see which contestant would be fired. Except in this case the "contestants" are resigning, depriving Trump of his opportunity to deliver the catchphrase.

I know, and I am loving it. Especially this Kushner incident, talk about getting these narcisstic paranoids even more paranoid! Even I think that looked like a terrible conspiracy, lol! :)

Trump ran an effective business before being voted into office. When your team is weakened, it's time to release the tired people, and bring in new, excited blood.
...and, apparently, it's good to get ones who aren't working for foreign governments or ones who aren't under investigation or are about to be indicted or are already indicted or are turning States evidence or are so bad at their job even President Trump notices. :wave:
tulc(is surprised how many of President Trump's "only the best people" he brought in to his administration seem to end up also being the ones getting arrested or lying to congress) :sorry:

The Bible says God chooses our leaders. Many Christians prayed for Trump to win and that's why he won. Liberal atheists use the tolerance argument to gain the majority, but once they do, they abandon tolerance.

It depends on how one chooses to define "effective". Perhaps many who have left including Ms. Hicks grew "tired" and the "new, excited blood" tend to be weary of the inducement to white lies. As for "effective" business... Report: Trump has refused to pay hundreds of workers

What's really amazing about that? Those Scriptures were only discovered (apparently) at the beginning of last year! Because for the 8 years before then, they were completely absent from most Christians Bibles during President Obama's administration. :sorry:

Truthfully he won because the Electoral collage tends to favor Republicans. :wave:

Liberal atheists use the tolerance argument to gain the majority, but once they do, they abandon tolerance.
...if that were true, wouldn't President Trump never have been allowed to take office in the first place? Because the majority of voters in America voted for someone else to be President. Like almost 3,000,000 more voters. :scratch:
tulc(just thought those things needed to be pointed out) ;)

God has both a predictive and permissive will (So does God choose or allow?)...the additional question would be, do you want your children to emulate trump in terms of character and conduct?
