President Donald Trump has floated several potential replacements for Kelly to aides, sources told ABC. Reportedly on his list are House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), White House budget chief Mick Mulvaney and businessman Tom Barrack. White House spokesman Hogan Gidley on Friday denied the reports that Kelly had offered to resign. Kelly reportedly knew about the protective order against Porter well before the staff secretary resigned. Kelly took over from former chief of staff Reince Priebus, who lasted just six months on the job.
