During President Donald Trump's two years and five months in office, at least 50 people have left, were forced out or fired from his administration.

According to a new study from the Brookings Institution, a nonprofit public policy organization in Washington D.C., Trump's administration holds the record for highest staff turnover in the White House.

The most recent resignation came June 13 from White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders. 

The New York Times spoke with the author of the study, who said Trump "has the record for White House staff turnover, for cabinet turnover and now for the highest turnover within a single department."

As of June 14, 2019, the study says Trump's "A Team" has a turnover rate of 69 percent. The study says the "A Team" is made up of members of the executive office of the president but doesn't include Cabinet secretaries.
