№ 484: Hale To The Chief (of staff)

The Chief of Staff is a political appointee of the President who does not require Senate confirmation, and who serves at the pleasure of the President. Although not a legally required role, incoming presidents since Truman have appointed a chief of staff. — Wikipedia, White House Chief of Staff

CHIEF of MY staff?
Don't make me laugh.
It is my firm belief
(“BELIEF, NOT  “conviction”,
NO COLLUSION, that's fiction)
only I can be CHIEF.

Maybe if we call it First Flunky
and had someone so feeble that I look hunky?
Someone who, faithful and loyal,
would bow down before me like I was a royal
as I wheel and deal making everything foggy.
I don't want a chief! I want a doggy!

And one other thing,
don't call him “King”.
