Donald Trump has sacked his national security advisor H.R. McMaster just days after ousting his Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, as his purge of White House staff continues, it has been reported.
Five people with knowledge of the plan have stated that Mr Trump is eyeing up several replacements for Mr McMaster that include former US ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton and the Chief of Staff for the National Security Council, Keith Kellogg.
The dismissal of Mr McMaster has not been officially confirmed.

I don’t see how things have NOT been working properly..even Tillerson paved the way for some good things...and Pompeo will be better...but it wasn’t as though Trump’s foreign policy has been an utter failure. Things are moving in the right direction!
John Bolton is a good guy.
Trump is learning very quickly about the good guys I think.
This is fake news. It’s sourced to the Washington Post, which has no credibility. They didn’t even bother to check if their sources were telling them the truth.
The Washington Post is nothing but a fiction blog run by a bunch of leftists.
Trump decides to remove national security adviser, and others may follow
By Ashley Parker, Josh Dawsey, Philip Rucker and Carol D. Leonnig
March 15 at 8:51 PM EPresident Trump has decided to remove H.R. McMaster as his national security adviser and is actively discussing potential replacements, according to five people with knowledge of the plans, preparing to deliver yet another jolt to the senior ranks of his administration.
Trump is now comfortable with ousting McMaster, with whom he never personally gelled, but is willing to take time executing the move because he wants to ensure both that the three-star Army general is not humiliated and that there is a strong successor lined up, these people said.
time machine!
Agree!
Aww c’mon, all the pearl clutchers are gonna have to grab their teddy bears and curl up and cry
Sad
Shame it’s fake news. I don’t think McMaster should have ever had the job as NSC under Trump.
It takes four people in a byline for a few paragraphs?
“Fingers crossed that this report is accurate. If so, it’s 3 globalists down in 1 week (Cohn, Tillerson and McMaster).”
Well — if they are so bad — then why did Trump hire them?
Cohn is being replaced by Kudlow. Kudlow is a globalist.
Bolton is not on the same page. He and Tucker Carlson had a very heated conversation the other night about this subject.
Well that’s nice, but Trump wasn’t thrilled with McMaster’s regular in-touches with Susan Rice.
So, “no”, McMasters is not redeemable. Besides, stepping on Trump’s lines on more than one occasion, and in public, the Susan Rice communication is unacceptable.
He has been a pia since his placement, but Obama so hollowed out the brass in the military that Trump was left with a smaller and tainted pool from which to select NSA advisers.
I’m going to DC this weekend. I’ve needed a new job for a while and I hear the White House is having a job fair.
May be false today, but reportedly happening within the month.
