Trump's Longtime Personal Assistant Was Fired And Escorted From The White House Monday Before He Could Grab His Coat
NY Post — President Trump’s longtime personal assistant was fired and escorted out of the White House Monday for security issues, according to multiple reports.
John McEntee was canned over issues with his security clearance, sources told CNN.
McEntee served as one of Trump’s longest-serving aides for the past three years, according to the Wall Street Journal, which first broke the news. McEntee was not allowed to collect his belongings when he was escorted from White House grounds. He left without his coat.
If we’re being honest I have no idea how security clearance at the White House works. This crew is 13 months in and this guy’s just now being booted for security clearance issues? What? Shouldn’t that be a major issue about a month before they into the White House? We’re talking about the president’s personal assistant. Guy who’s right by his side. Guy who changes the channel and lays out the robe and carries the briefcase. Guy who wipes Trump’s ass. And 13 months in, we’re just now telling the President of the United States’ personal assistant, “Hey couldn’t get that security clearance, you’re outta here buddy”? Then escorting him coatless into a nor’easter?
Weird. And to make things even weirder…
…he’s immediately hired for the Trump 2020 campaign! What a move.
Here’s some more info from Tapper.
No clue what to think about all this, but another one bites the dust… kind of.
