florida. senator rubio, thank you for joining us. i want to get to all the issues i talked about in the open. but first, i want to ask you about retiring chief of staff john kelly, speaker ryan called him a force for order, clarity and good sense. if the last year was an example of order, clarity and good sense, are you concerned about what happens next with the white house without john kelly? well, depends on who they put in as a replacement. i m a huge john kelly fan. i ve known him since he served in florida. his last assignment before retiring from the military was running southern command. and he did a great job there. he did a great job at homeland security. and we had a great working relationship with him as the chief of staff. there is always turnover in that position, obviously. every president has at least a couple. and so obviously it s a loss to see him go. and now we ll see who they put there as a replacement. and we ll go from there. but hopefully it will be someone,
