Trump’s new Comm’s director was spinning hard for Trump this morning when he and Cuomo went at it over Trump’s public mistreatment of Jeff Sessions.

I’ll give Scaramucci credit for at least giving it a good old college try. That was probably a better explanation that we’d have gotten from anyone else working for Trump, even if it was just spin.
But the truth is it’s not only unpresidential, but unprofessional for Trump to take his beef with one of his ‘underlings’ public like this. It not only undermines Trump’s relationship with Sessions, but also undermines Sessions among those who work for him. It does nothing but create problems for everyone involved, especially when the media begins hounding people for more.
I’m glad it hasn’t happened yet today, but honestly the damage has already been done. Sessions deserves much better than this.
