Trump announced new chief of staff through twitter
Reince Priebus will go down as the shortest-serving White House chief of staff in the history of the United States.
President Donald Trump announced Priebus was out of the job on Friday evening, and that Trump had replaced him with Department of Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly.
The president heralded the end of Priebus's term with a few tweets sent from Air Force One, after Priebus had already disembarked the plane.
I am pleased to inform you that I have just named General/Secretary John F Kelly as White House Chief of Staff. He is a Great American....— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 28, 2017
...and a Great Leader. John has also done a spectacular job at Homeland Security. He has been a true star of my Administration— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 28, 2017
