The United States' president announced a series of changes in his cabinet in a wide-ranging interview to Fox News.

Iran Press/ America: In this interview, "Donald Trump" told 'Fox News Sunday' he is considering changes in '3 or 4 or 5' cabinet positions.

"I have three or four or five positions that I’m thinking about," Trump said. "Of that, maybe it’s going to end up being two. But I need flexibility," he added.

The president also pushed back on reports of a rift between himself and White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, most recently after Kelly's office had neglected personnel requests from first lady Melania Trump's office.

He meanwhile continued: "I'm extremely upbeat and the White House is running like a well-oiled machine."

"It's doing really well. I have great people. I will make some changes, but not very many. I'm very happy with my cabinet," Trump said.

The president's statements on FOX mirror a tweet he posted last week, which insisted reports of personnel changes were dramatic and the White House was running so smoothly that America was "the envy of the world."

President Trump’s Cabinet is made up of department heads and advisers he’s hand-picked – and they all have vastly different backgrounds.

But his Cabinet, which includes the heads of 15 executive departments and others, such as the vice president and White House chief of staff, hasn’t remained the same since he took office. Some members have resigned, and others have shuffled to different positions. 101/207
