Media: The United States Secretary of Defense wrote his resignation letter

The US network “NBC”, citing Pentagon officials, said Defense Secretary Mark Esper prepared his letter of resignation from his post.

Officials said Esper prepared his letter as one of the government ministers who was expected to be removed after the elections.

Sources in the Trump administration reported last September that the president was not satisfied with the work of Secretary of Defense Mark Esper, and was seeking to replace him with Secretary of Veterans Affairs Robert Wilkie.

And Bloomberg had previously reported, in early August, that Trump was studying the possibility of removing Esper from the post of Secretary of Defense if he wins the presidential election, adding that the Pentagon chief had personally informed those close to him of his intention to resign, regardless of the results of the presidential race.

In June, NBC reported that Trump considered firing Esper immediately because of their significant differences over protests sparked by the murder of African-American George Floyd.

With Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden having a better chance of winning the White House race, former US President Donald Trump’s campaign adviser has hinted that he could run again for president in 2024.

“Trump is in a good position to run again in four years,” Brian Lanza, former director of communications for Trump’s transition team, told BBC Radio 4 on Thursday. British “The Independent”.

Lanza added that if Trump runs again, “he will be younger than Joe Biden in his current bid for the presidency, so age is not an issue.”

He continued: “Biden will have a chance, if he wins the 2020 election, to lift America out of the disease (Covid-19) and the emerging corona virus, and we will see his successes and failures, and no one in the Republican Party can challenge him. President Trump in the primaries. “
