# Trump Has Decided To Fire McMaster As National Security Adviser: WaPo

Confirming the "purge rumblings" reported earlier, moments ago the Washington Post reported that President Trump has decided to fire H.R. McMaster as his national security adviser, delivering the latest jolt to the senior ranks of his administration.

This latest termination from Trump's administration makes it 25 departures in Trump's first 419 days, or on average one every 17 days.

As the WaPo adds, while "Trump is now comfortable with ousting McMaster, with whom he never personally gelled," he is taking the time to execute the move because "he wants to ensure both that the three-star Army general is not humiliated and that there is a strong successor lined up, these people said."

Developing.

If true, there seems to be more than a few leaks again. That does make a difference.

About time. Maybe all his Islamic friends can console him and use him as their spokesperson. He and Brennan can start a consulting firm for Islamic terrorists.

Fire Mueller and prosecute the Clinton's already.

Notice how the "Russian meddling" meme just keeps on rolling?

It's like the banksters want to get us into another war! Oh wait...

Who knows, maybe Trump finally figured out that hiring from the swamp does not beget draining of the swamp. Then again, he did do some lateral swamp shifting on the last round of firings, so probably just more swamp surfing.
