Two top advisers to Donald Trump may soon resign from the White House amid longstanding tensions with the president.
National Security Adviser H.R. McCaster and White House Chief of Staff John Kelly have grown increasingly frustrated with Trump and are considering leaving the administration, four senior administration officials told Reuters.
But if the past is any indication, the administration officials said the tensions could blow over.
The most recent sign of conflict arose over the weekend, when Trump criticized the three-star general for saying the special counsel investigation shows “incontrovertible” evidence that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election.
McCaster is considering returning to the Pentagon, officials said.
A rift between Trump and Kelly grew over the chief of staff’s handling of the resignation of White House staff secretary Rob Porter, who was accused by two-ex wives of domestic violence.
Turnover has plagued Trump’s administration since he became president in January 2017.
