Don McGahn had one foot out the door because he thought Trump was ‘crazy’ — but law firm boss pressured him to stay
Don McGahn was ready to quit as White House counsel for Donald Trump until the managing partner of an influential conservative law firm persuaded him to stay.
McGahn had been personally responsible for picking Trump's judges, whose ranks he filled with conservatives approved by the Federalist Society, and gutting the administrative state, but less than six months into the job he was growing increasingly frustrated with handling the former president's legal problems, according to excerpts from the new book "Servants of the Damned" published by the New York Times Magazine.
"For his part, McGahn was growing worried about his own potential legal exposure — especially when Trump in June 2017 pushed him to fire Mueller," wrote author David Enrich. "McGahn refused and contemplated quitting. Around then, he called [Jones Day managing partner Stephen] Brogan. The president was crazy, McGahn fumed. Maybe, he ventured, he should cut his losses and return to Jones Day."
