The always exciting and rarely predictable Trump presidency continues. National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, only confirmed 3 weeks ago, is already out the door. It is strange that one of Trump's least controversial picks - he's a Democrat - should be the first to go. The news so far is that he was under investigation for a conversations with Russian officials in which he talked about the sanctions that President Obama imposed in the wake of Russian hacking during the election. Interestingly, it was Acting Attorney General Yates - whom Trump fired - that informed the administration of his talks. The problem was not that he conversed with Russian officials but that he failed to report the scope of the conversations.
Will Trump have a higher than usual turnover rate? How many of the current cabinet members and advisors will still be in the administration next year?
