Months before Mick Mulvaney was picked as President Donald Trump's acting chief of staff, he requested a meeting with Trump to sell himself as the best man to run his chaotic White House.
Mulvaney boiled his case down to three main points. First, he reminded Trump that he'd spent the previous two years successfully managing two federal agencies, the Office of Management and Budget and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, with almost no dysfunction. Secondly, he said he had demonstrated fierce loyalty to the President.
Several say that the infighting and back-biting that characterized the first two years of Trump's presidency has dissipated. While Kelly's attempts to instill discipline and order into the West Wing gained him a reputation as being combative, Mulvaney's under-the-radar demeanor have made him relatively few enemies in a staff more accustomed to the power struggles of Trump's first two years in office.Yet for all the peace, there have been few accomplishments.
