TRUMP: Ejects Chief of Staff for Coughing

sident Trump‘s staffers: Don’t cough while the boss is doing an interview. He really hates that.

During Trump’s wide-ranging Oval Office interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos last week, he kicked Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney out of the room because he coughed. Trump was responding to a question about his financial statements and whether he would ever release them to the Senate when a cough was heard off-camera. Trump stopped the interview, pointed at Mulvaney and said, “Let’s do that over, he’s coughing in the middle of my answer. I don’t like that. If you’re gonna cough please leave the room.” (FOX News)
