COOPER: President Trump is no longer considering a top congressional ally to be his next chief of staff. Congressman Mark Meadows is no longer a contender that's despite the President mentioning him as an option just yesterday in an interview with Reuters. White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders says the President told Meadows that they need him in Congress. Meadows released a statement this afternoon saying, and I quote, "I know the President has a long list of tremendous candidates for his next chief of staff and whomever it is will have my total support moving forward." The President also told Reuters he has at least 10 or 12 people that want the job badly and said he is in, and I quote, "No rush to name a new chief of staff." No frontrunner has emerged after Vice-President Pence's Chief of Staff Nick Ayers declined to take the job to replace Kelly, John Kelly. But Mr. Trump has reportedly considering others, including Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, OMB Director Mick Mulvaney, former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, and U.S. Trade Representative Bob Lighthizer, though several of the candidates have already indicated that they're not interested in the post.
