Smart guy. Has 6-year-old triplets. Knows a shitshow when he smells one.

Nick Ayers, the leading candidate to replace John Kelly as chief of staff, won’t take the job, I’m told. He and Trump could not agree to terms. Trump pushed Ayers to commit to 2 years, but he declined, citing young kids & desire to move back to GA. Unclear who will take the job.

Ayers was Donald Trump's first choice as a candidate to replace outgoing chief of staff John Kelly.
He also tweeted the news himself.

Thank you @realDonaldTrump, @VP, and my great colleagues for the honor to serve our Nation at The White House. I will be departing at the end of the year but will work with the #MAGA team to advance the cause.
