here’s everyone who has left the trump administration so far

Despite President Trump’s reassurances that his White House is not in chaos, the departures of top aides and key members of his administration paint a very different picture.

As of March 7, there was turnover in 43% of the Trump White House’s top-level positions in just 13 months, according to the research of Dr. Kathryn Dunn Tenpas, from the Brookings Institution and the White House Transition Project. Those figures don’t include people who have left posts outside of the executive branch during Trump’s first year in office.

Needless to say, these numbers are not normal. Tenpas’ research shows that the turnover during Trump’s first year is more than triple than that of President Barack Obama and double of that of President Ronald Reagan.
