Trump Reportedly Circumvents Kelly By Calling Friends On Personal Cell Phone

As new chief of staff John Kelly tries to impose order in the White House by limiting the President’s impromptu conversations with friends and advisers, a defiant Donald Trump has taken to calling friends and outside advisers on his personal cell phone, circumventing Kelly’s attempt to vet calls and appointments, the Washington Post reported, citing unnamed people with knowledge of the calls.

Those in contact with Trump on his personal, unsecured cell phone when Kelly is not present include recently ousted chief strategist Steve Bannon, per the Washington Post.

Emphasis mine.

discussing classified information. That would be perfect. Maybe Bannon might let something slip?

So he can talk to Bannon about it whatever he wants, without legal consequences.
