WASHINGTON — John Kelly, the White House chief of staff, abruptly scrapped plans to travel with President Donald Trump on Wednesday so he could try to contain his boss’s fury and manage the fallout from new revelations about tensions between the president and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, according to six senior administration officials.

Kelly summoned Tillerson, and their ally Defense Secretary James Mattis, to the White House, where the three of them huddled to discuss a path forward, according to three administration officials.

Trump will be soul dic.....tator which he wants to be. Putin must be so happy to see the demise of the US, dismantling being done by a fake President from within. Domestic enemies, I would classify them as.

Real patriots would go to the press with their concerns on the way out.

Resign, loudly. Tell the world your concerns. Get the national security threat out of the white house.
