BOOM!! TRUMP TO McMASTER: YOU’RE FIRED!! [Update: MAYBE NOT]

According to the Washington Post, McMaster is OUT.

More from the WP:

President Trump has decided to remove H.R. McMaster as his national security adviser and is actively discussing potential replacements, according to five people with knowledge of the plans, preparing to deliver yet another jolt to the senior ranks of his administration.

Trump is now comfortable with ousting McMaster, with whom he never personally gelled, but is willing to take time executing 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.

The turbulence is part of a broader potential shake-up under consideration by Trump that is likely to include senior officials at the White House, where staffers are gripped by fear and un­certainty as they await the next move from an impulsive president who enjoys stoking conflict.

There you go – we thought there might be a purge at the White House and here it is!!! Can Trump operate competently under these conditions? Are you not entertained??!

Wait wait wait.. UPDATE!! 

President Trump hasn’t made a final decision on removing National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster, according to a White House official, Bloomberg News reports. The Washington Post reported earlier Trump has decided to remove McMaster but is “willing to take his time” to make the move.

That’s from Bloomberg, so maybe McMaster will stay on? Maybe it’s a trial balloon?

MORE UPDATE!!!

Huckabee Sanders says it ain’t true and they’re all hugging each other like brothers at the White House:

Hmmmm.
