The Hill
President Trump has privately asked aides about his vice president Mike Pence's loyalty, the New York Times reported Friday.
Trump reportedly questioned Pence's allegiance so many times that many of his advisers are alarmed, as those kinds of inquiries tend to indicate that he is irritated with someone.
According to the Times, most people within the White House have been supportive of Pence when asked, but some of Trump's outside advisers have suggested that the vice president may have used up his utility.
Trump has reportedly not made clear whether he is seriously considering a 2020 ticket change or whether he is simply trying to get adviser's opinions before the campaign begins.
The Times noted that some outside advisers have suggested former United States ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley as a potential replacement for Pence. Trump praised Haley when she announced her intentions to leave her post at the UN in October.
Mike, on THE APPRENTICE, Trump replaced his “assistants” with his kids when they were no longer useful; you’re no different.
