[Im] not spinning for the president, said Reince Preibus Sunday morning on Fox News. I dont work for the president anymore.
The former White House Chief of Staff didnt really need to make that comment, though. Moments earlier, hed made that fact patently obvious.
Appearing on MediaBuzz with Howard Kurtz, Priebus refused to go to bat for President Donald Trump following Rudy Giulianis shocking admission that the Commander in Chief reimbursed his attorney, Michael Cohen, for the hush money payout to Stormy Daniels.
Im not sure what the truth is, Priebus said. Whether there was a payment made or not by the president. Obviously, I believe the mayor. I know that he wouldnt go on TV and say anything that wasnt true. But in todays world, with so many different people saying different things, I dont know if we actually know yet the truth of it. I myself didnt know anything about it.

I was only chair of the RNC, when that guy was the Counsel for the RNC. I dont know who or what that guy paid for. Nothing to see here.

(11,954 posts)In the context of discussing Rudy's statements vs. Trump's, saying that Rudy wouldn't go on TV and say something he knew to be untrue is a sideways way of saying that Trump would.
