Current Trump Admin. staffing level is very disquieting.

no FBI Director,

no Homeland Security Director,

no FEMA director

he may soon have no CIA Director,

trying to get rid of his Attorney General,

he may lose his Secretaries of Defense and State, they both are on sudden "vacations" amid talk they want to quit

and he’s thinking about doing away with Steve Bannon does.

Potentially getting rid of his National Security Director
