‘Morning Joe’ Mocks Trump Saying 12 People Want To Be Chief of Staff: ‘If By None You Mean 12, Then Yeah’

BRZEZINSKI: "Just days after a 36-year-old aide to the Vice President turned down an offer to be White House chief of staff, President Trump claims to have more candidates for the job than he can handle, telling Reuters last night, quote, 'I have at least 10, 12 — 12 people that want it badly. I’m making a decision. Great people,' Trump said. I’m sorry. I can’t help the imitation."
SCARBOROUGH: "If by none you mean 12, then yeah, 12 people."
BRZEZINSKI: "'I could do it immediately. I’m in no rush. A lot of people want it. Everybody wants it. Who doesn’t want to be one of the top few people in Washington, D.C.,' Trump said, gesturing to the three reporters interviewing. 'I mean, you three guys would take it.' No. He goes on, 'I have so many people, I cannot interview them all,' he said. my God. Turning to the senior communications adviser Bill Shine, Trump asked, 'Is that a correct statement?' And Shine agreed. What else is he going to do? the current chief of staff John Kelly will remain in the job through at least January 2nd but perhaps longer because they might not find anyone. But again, that poor guy, he just wants out."
