White House Chief of Staff John Kelly defended his tenure in an interview with the Los Angeles Times.
Most interesting: “Kelly said he made sure that Trump had access to multiple streams of detailed information before he made a decision — even if the president says he often relies on his gut, rather than U.S. intelligence.”
Said Kelly: “It’s never been: The president just wants to make a decision based on no knowledge and ignorance. You may not like his decision, but at least he was fully informed on the impact.”
“Kelly admitted that spending nearly every waking minute of 15-hour days with a president seemingly inundated with one crisis after another has been a ‘bone-crushing hard job, but you do it.'”
The Guardian: “Kelly’s interview contained a number of statements likely to irk Trump.”
