Let General Kelly be the chief of staff

Political Cartoons by Gary Varvel

Silvio Canto, Jr.  "President Trump was tweeting yesterday morning about the good economic news and a few other things.  He has every right to take credit for them.
"However, his problems are at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, not the U.S.-Mexico border or the stock market.
"This is why I'm hoping Mr. Kelly's appointment is the beginning of a new day in the Trump presidency. 
"I agree with Newt Gingrich that Trump-Kelly could be a game-changer: 
President Trump has made a big decision in bringing Kelly to the White House to be chief of staff.
It will be fascinating to watch these two powerful, experienced leaders forge a unique working relationship.
I predict the White House will become more orderly and disciplined – with clear lines of authority, serious planning and strong teamwork.
The person who may benefit most from this change is President Trump. He has worked with many smart, successful people in his remarkable career, but he has never worked this closely with someone as used to command, organization and dignified insistence on teamwork as Secretary Kelly.
If these two powerful leaders truly become a team, the Trump presidency will become one of the most effective in our history.
