mean he wasn't a leaker. Maybe his security clearance was also not up to par. Get him out of the WH where he cannot do further damage but keep him on the campaign to re-elect 'cause "he's been a good friend sort of deal"..

McEntee was ushered out of the White House so abruptly that he couldn't gather his personal belongings or even his jacket. What would cause such urgency? I'm sure you're correct about the security clearance but that wouldn't seem to require immediate action.

If he was discovered to be a leaker, Trump is so vengeful and demanding of fealty to him that I don't think he would want McEntee in his campaign. Besides, Trump discards people when he believes they've been "disloyal." Maybe McEntee's WH firing wasn't ordered by Trump but instead by Kelly.

As with everything around Trump, this story has layers we're not seeing.
