NY Post:

President Trump suggested Defense Secretary James Mattis may be among the next high-level Cabinet officials to step down, calling the general a “good guy” but “sort of a Democrat.”

While Trump has a “very good relationship” with his defense chief, the president said “it could be” that Mattis will depart the administration, although the general hasn’t told him so.

“I think he’s sort of a Democrat, if you want to know the truth,” Trump told CBS’ “60 Minutes” in an interview to air Sunday. “But General Mattis is a good guy. We get along very well. He may leave. I mean, at some point, everybody leaves. Everybody. People leave. That’s Washington.”

The comments come after the announced departure of United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley and the expected shake-up at Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ Justice Department after the midterm elections.

Trump’s White House has already set a staff turnover rate of 37 percent through June 30, the Associated Press reported, and set new records for attrition.
