President Trump has called National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster “a pain” and complained that he talks too much in meetings, The New York Times reported Tuesday.

Some senior advisers worry about leaving Trump alone during meetings with foreign leaders, the report said.

McMaster has tried to subtly correct Trump in conversations when he thinks necessary and help keep him on topic — a habit that has annoyed Trump, the Times wrote.

After reports surfaced Monday that Trump had revealed highly classified intelligence to Russian officials, McMaster said outside the White House that the “story that came out tonight, as reported, is false.”

On Tuesday, McMaster said Trump did not jeopardize intelligence assets by revealing highly sensitive information to the Russians, adding that Trump did not know where the intel came from.

    I am so tired of all this constant drama at the White House. Perhaps if the media would ignore all these manufactured controversies, they would lose their appeal to Trump and his ego will be deflated. That’s the only reason we have all this nonsense. Trump either starts the fire or fans the flames so everyone will be talking about HIM.

    Perhaps if being dictator is no longer fun, he will go away.
