Fox News host floats Sessions to replace Kelly at Homeland Security
By Joe Concha - 07/29/17 08:38 AM EDT

Fox News co-host Dana Perino on Friday night suggested former Homeland Security head John Kelly was named new White House chief of staff to clear a path for President Trump to remove Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

Sessions has been in disfavor with President Trump for some time, with the president's criticism rapidly escalating over the past week.

But if Trump named Sessions as the new head of DHS, it could appease conservatives who believe the attorney general is doing a good job on immigration, according to Perino, who is a former press secretary to former President George W. Bush.

But what does Sessions know about Homeland Security?  Would he be qualified for the job?

What am I saying?  In most presidencies, including this one, a candidate for a particular job need not be qualified or competent.

Interesting idea.  It still won't diffuse whatever furor arises elsewhere, though.

Fake news.

Mr. Kelly seems to be doing a good-enough job where he is now.

I sense "the rift" that exists between Mr. Trump and Mr. Sessions isn't quite the canyon that the "mainstream media" is trying to portray.

The 'rift' is being promoted by Trump and his new 'communications director' themselves.
