Trump rehires Reince Priebus and Sean Spicer to White House roles

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by NancyBlueINOklahoma (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

President Donald Trump has rehired his former chief of staff Reince Priebus and former press secretary Sean Spicer almost three years after both men unceremoniously departed the White House.

Priebus and Spicer will each join the President’s Commission on White House Fellowships, according to a White House announcement Tuesday. As a part of the commission, the pair will interview and recommend to their former boss national finalists for appointments.

Spicer, who resigned in July 2017 out of dissatisfaction with the hiring of Anthony Scaramucci as communications director, courted controversy for repeatedly telling lies on behalf the president. Among those were false claims that Trump’s inauguration had the biggest crowds in history, that the president would have won the popular vote in the 2016 if not for voter fraud, that former President Barack Obama wiretapped Trump Tower and that Adolf Hitler had not used chemical weapons.

Kushner is the evil mastermind behind Trump’s re-election campaign. He and Ivanka are trying to "normalize" Trump so he can slime his way into winning in November. Plus they all want to avoid criminal prosecution and staying in power guarantees that.

Trump will probably end up firing Spicer and Priebus again. And Hicks will have another emotional breakdown. Anybody that goes to work in this administration has a masochistic streak.

He must be running out of people who have no self respect and are blindly loyal. Will Steve Bannon be coming back next?
