Agreed. Still, maybe the waters will calm with Kelly in charge. I may not be a fan of this president, but it doesn't mean that I want to see the office take this kind of damage.

I do, however, think it is interesting that the opening months of the Trump administration looks like a whirlwind version of Carter's. Dickerson did a good job of drawing those comparisons--while acknowledging the very clear differences too--between now and Carter's big shake up in 1979 on his Whistlestop podcast.
