Former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly claims he warned President Trump about impeachment before he exited the White House.

“I said whatever you do, don’t hire a ‘yes man,’ someone who won’t tell you the truth — don’t do that. Because if you do, I believe you will be impeached,” Kelly said Saturday during an interview at the Washington Examiner’s Sea Island Political Summit.

Kelly said Trump needed a steady hand in the job to check his worst impulses, stating his belief that if he were still there, the president would “not be kind of all over the place.”
