Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) says President Trump “needs to understand the effect” that firing top administration officials via Twitter has on recruiting new members of his Cabinet.
In an interview set to air Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Johnson said he personally would not have taken to social media to dismiss top advisers.
“It’s not the way I’d do it,” Johnson said. “I think the president does need to understand the effect it has on attracting other people.”
Johnson’s comments came after Trump announced via Twitter on Wednesday that he had tapped White House physician Ronny Jackson to replace David Shulkin as his Veterans Affairs secretary.
