    • Longstanding friction between U.S. President Donald Trump and two top aides, the National
    • Security Adviser and the Chief of Staff, has grown to a point that either or both might quit soon, according to four senior administration officials.
    • Both H.R. McMaster and John Kelly have chafed at Trump's treatment of them in public and in private, which both at times have considered insulting, they said.
