Chris Whipple, Author of the New York Times best-selling book "The Gatekeepers", joins VF Hive to discuss the tension between President Trump and his Chief of Staff John Kelly. He reveals his thoughts on whether or not the White House is "broken."
If John Kelly left the White House tomorrow what would his report card say? Whipple says Kelly has failed to tell the President what not to do.

He can't predict who would take Kelly's spot if Trump decides to fire him, but he says being Chief of Staff is the toughest job in Washington.
