Summary
With the news that John Kelly is leaving his post as Chief of Staff for Donald Trump, the White House is having a very hard time finding a new one. Trump thought he could hire Mike Pence's chief of staff, Nick Ayers, but he left his post and went back to private business. No one wants this job because working for Donald Trump is an impossible job!
We talk to Kelly Dietrich, Founder of the National Democratic Training Committee, Tiffany Muller, the President of End Citizens United and Politics Reporter for Mother Jones, Pema Levy!
