U.S. President Donald Trump is reportedly considering a major overhaul in his White House staffs and bring back top campaign strategists as he is frustrated by what he sees as the present team's inability to contain the crisis involving the Russia probe.
According to media reports, lawyers and public relations experts are being recruited as new revelations surface about Moscow's interference and possible improper dealings with the Trump campaign and associates.
It was recently revealed that Trump's son-in-law and White House advisor Jared Kushner allegedly spoke with Russia's ambassador to the U.S. about setting up a back-channel communications network with Moscow during the presidential transition.
Recently, Trump's longtime lawyer, Marc Kasowitz, joined a still-forming legal team to help him shoulder the intensifying investigations into alleged Russian interference in the election and his associates' potential involvement. More attorneys with deep experience in Washington investigations are expected to be added, along with crisis communication experts, to help the White House in the weeks ahead.
Earlier in March as well, it was reported that Trump was extremely frustrated with his senior staff and communications team for allowing the firestorm surrounding Attorney General Jeff Sessions over Russia links.
