Is General Kelly Leaving his Post as Chief Of Staff to the President

I just read yet another article discussing whether or not General Kelly is about to leave as White House Chief of Staff.  This time, the reporters say that he may or may not be leaving.  That makes them correct no matter what happens.  For most of the last four months, however, the articles have all been about how Kelly was leaving "imminently".  Of course, that was wrong.  Kelly didn't leave.  All those discussions about how Trump was driving Kelly out were wrong.  The endless prattling by the reporters about chaos in the White House turned out once again to be wrong.

Why don't they just decide to wait until the day finally comes when Kelly decides to leave.  It will come eventually.  Being White House Chief of Staff is too taxing a job for anyone to hold it for too long a period.  At the point when Kelly leaves, the media can then write all about his departure.  Until then, maybe the better policy would be to just shut up with the silly speculations.
