Trump's leadership style

Trump delegates unpleasant tasks to underlings, firing people via social media rather than in person.

“you're fired”

High turnover in first term

Brookings analysis shows trump had 92% turnover rate among his 'a team' during first administration.

Trump's second term stability

Trump's second term has seen fewer personnel changes despite appointing loyal sycophants.

Recent female firings

Trump fired attorney general pam bondi, homeland security secretary kristi noem, and others after criticism.

Susie Wiles' role

Wiles has been trump's longest tenured chief of staff, enabling him without criticizing him.

“these seminal moments where you have to go in and tell the president what he wants to do is unconstitutional or will cost lives. i don't have that”

Trump's potential scapegoat

Trump reportedly wants to fire wiles as gop faces expected midterm losses.

Possible replacements

Three candidates considered: bill pulte, kevin mccarthy, or stephen miller.

Bill Pulte

Pulte is a fierce trump loyalist known for spending time with president, feeding him memes and ideas.

Kevin McCarthy

McCarthy is a former house speaker who earned the sobriquet 'my kevin' for his red starburst candy habit.

Stephen Miller

Miller is a notorious senior adviser who could become shadow president with full presidential power.

Miller's threat

Miller's authoritarian policies could make trump even less popular than nixon with a worse legacy.
