President Trump has floated Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and White House counselor Kellyanne Conway as possible replacements for acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney, Bloomberg News reported Tuesday.
Trump reportedly told Mnuchin about a month ago, “You have such great ideas. Why don’t you be my chief?†according to Bloomberg.
People familiar with the matter told the news outlet that Trump has made similar remarks to deputy chief of staff Chris Liddell and has asked advisers if Conway would be a good choice for the position. White House aides told Bloomberg that Trump’s comments about a possible replacement are not new, as he usually tests different considerations in conversations with aides.
The Hill has reached out to the White House and the Treasury Department for comment.
