1. THAT WAS FAST 2 hours ago
Donald Trump is reportedly already turning on Mick Mulvaneywho hasnt even started his new job as acting White House chief of staff yetdue to a two-year-old video uncovered by The Daily Beast, which shows Mulvaney calling the president a terrible human being. Mulvaney is due to start his new job at the end of the year. Trumps announcement of Mulvaneys appointment followed a troubled hiring process that saw several of his preferred picks refuse the role. Trump reportedly started regretting his appointment after seeing the video of Mulvaney from a week before the 2016 election saying: Yes, I am supporting Donald Trump, but Im doing so despite the fact that I think hes a terrible human being. Axios reports Trump was furious when he heard about the footagehe reportedly asked one adviser: Did you know [Mulvaney] called me a terrible human being back during the campaign? A spokeswoman for Mulvaney dismissed the remarks as old news and said he changed his mind about Trump after they met.

Re Trump's decision on troops in Syria, where @RandPaul is one of the few Rs who supports him, a smart person notes to me: Mick Mulvaney was Rands national co-chair in 2016 race. Trading Kelly for Mick is good for POTUS instincts on things like this.

Trump made a deal with Erdogan and said nothing to Mattis, took none of his advice. Maybe Erdogan will publicize Trump's tower in Turkey, it will only cost the lives of the Kurds, no biggie.
