White House counsel Don McGahn ended his last day working in the White House having a 20-minute meeting with President Trump, which was described as “respectful but not friendly,” in Politico’s words.
The two have always had a contentious relationship that’s been held together by a thin thread: McGahn’s work packing the benches with conservative judges.
Prominent Washington attorney Pat Cipollone is expected to replace McGahn, but he is still going through a background check, a clearance that could take weeks, leaving the White House without a lead counsel in the interim.
Shortly after leaving his last meeting with Trump, McGahn hurridly left the White House and met with Robert Mueller.
Nope, bad career move, McGahn is too young to retire…
McGahn prefers to not spend time in the slammer.
I’m sure Trump understood from the first day the difference between a White House counsel and a personal lawyer.
leaving the White House without a lead counsel in the interim…
Stand by for some serious mistakes with the big brain left to his own devices
