In Reince Priebus’ first interview since his resignation was announced today he said something really funny. Wolf Blitzer asked if they talked about it for a while and if Trump tried to get him to reconsider.
Reince says, nah, we talked about me resigning ALL THE TIME.
Watch below:
Blitzer: Did the President ask you to resign?
Priebus: No, I resigned and he accepted it. https://t.co/6cbyhRg3ahhttps://t.co/seM1j1ohUT— The Situation Room (@CNNSitRoom) July 28, 2017
I don’t know if he meant to say that or not, but that doesn’t sound like a functional working relationship does it? And remember that there were anonymous reports that he did the same with Sessions…
Priebus is a team player though – he praises Bannon up and down in this clip.

It’s nice to see him be so political. I really think with all these moves that Trump is signaling a war against the GOP establishment. I mean, what’s the point of having them meddle in his affairs if they can’t pass anything in the Congress?
