Again top employee away from White House

washington - The American president Donald Trump says goodbye to a close employee again. He writes on Twitter that the legal adviser of the White House, Don McGahn, leaves this autumn.

McGahn was previously a legal advisor to the Trump campaign team. He got a job in the White House after the election. There the lawyer was not always in line with the president. McGahn threatened to resign, according to The New York Times, when Trump wanted to dismiss special prosecutor Robert Mueller last year. Trump finally scribbled back, insiders said to the newspaper.

McGahn now clears the field. According to Trump, this happens after the Senate has voted on the appointment of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. ' I have worked together with Don for a long time and cherish my appreciation for his services '', the president said on Twitter.

The lawyer repeatedly spoke to Mueller's team in recent times. The special prosecutor examines, among other things, whether figures within the Trump campaign have conspired with Russia to influence the elections. Trump has always denied that.
