Will Mulvaney Be First to Resign from Trump Cabinet?


February 6, 2017 By Taegan Goddard

Stan Collender says that OMB Director Mick Mulvaney will be either the most important member of the Trump cabinet or the first one out the door.

“Mulvaney’s positions on a variety of critical spending, tax and budget process issues are so different from Trump’s and so likely to get in the way of White House and congressional Republican plans that he could quickly find himself opposing what both Trump and the GOP majorities in Congress want to do. That’s why it’s not hard to imagine Mulvaney quitting or Trump demanding his resignation shortly after he joins the administration.”

I've read (and posted) articles speculating Bannon would be the first to go, followed by KellyAnne Conway and then Mulvaney.

He knows how to manipulate trump, a pretty easy thing to do once a person figures it out. Give him high praise, a pat on the back, tell him how smart he is. He might have gone too far with the intelligence thing, though. He should have told Trump what it was and made it sound to Trump's benefit.
