Well this is a White House that, while President Trump wants to say is functioning very smoothly, is actually in a state of chaos and a lot of the times you have this continuing revolving door that spinning of people continuously leaving the White House. And then you have this large cloud of the Russia investigation. The president is someone who is focused on it. He's tweeting about it daily. He is frustrated with the fact that he has these people that he thought were loyal to him now speaking to a special counsel. You think of Michael Cohen, you think of the executive editor of The National Enquirer, and other people that were close friends of the president who have now had interviews with the special counsel, who in a lot of ways save their own necks. Michael Coleman was focused on making sure that he wasn't going to go to jail for a long period of time. And as a result the president is now I think worried about what else could be coming out of the special counsel investigation and out of Robert Mueller's indictment.
