September 11, 2019 at 7:25 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard
Washington Post: Trumps desires for his advisers range from the trivial someone who looks the part to the traditional someone willing to vigorously support him and defend his policies in media appearances. But these demands can be grating and at times terminal for members of his staff especially for those who, like the national security adviser, may find themselves at odds with the president on critical issues.
Said one former Trump official: There is no person that is part of the daily Trump decision-making process that can survive long term. The president doesnt like people to get good press. He doesnt like people to get bad press. Yet he expects everyone to be relevant and important and supportive at all times. Even if a person could do all those things, the president would grow tired of anyone in his immediate orbit.
