There goes another one

Purging continues apace in the White House.

The White House’s chief operations officer is leaving the administration, the White House said on Monday.

Daniel P. Walsh, whose title was deputy chief of staff, was in charge of the administration’s foreign trips, made decisions about the use of government resources by White House aides, oversaw the White House military office and played a critical role in the attempted planning of the Group of Seven summit at the president’s Doral resort, which was scuttled amid backlash over the emoluments clause.

So why is he leaving? Got sick of being used?

Walsh was in charge of the July 4 Celebration of America on the Mall in Washington, which was derided by critics but seen internally as a rousing success, and was involved in most presidential rallies.

Walsh was one of the few officials in the West Wing who were present on Day One — and had been a federal government employee for 28 years, officials said.

“Dan Walsh is a fantastic member of the team, and has served the White House and my Administration with the utmost professionalism and honor,” Trump said in a statement to The Washington Post. “He has accepted a great job in the private sector, as almost all of my people who develop experience in the White House have done.”

White House officials said they had identified a likely internal replacement for Walsh that would be announced in the coming days but declined to say who would take the job.

Why not? And why is Dan Walsh cutting and running?

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
