SEAN SPICER/STEVE BANNON/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “Former White House press secretary Sean Spicer said Thursday [1-4-18] he is troubled that former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon has not denied the statements attributed to him in a recent book about the early days of President Donald Trump’s tenure.
‘While he may continue to say he’s a supporter of the President and his agenda, what we didn’t hear is a denial,’ Spicer said in a conversation on HLN’s ‘SE Cupp Unfiltered.’…
In response to the statements, the White House has slammed the book, and Trump said in a statement that Bannon had ‘lost his mind.’
Bannon reiterated his support for Trump in a Breitbart radio show Wednesday…
Like the White House has done officially, Spicer questioned the veracity of the book…
But for the quotes attributed to Bannon, Spicer said the former Trump adviser was out of line.
‘You don’t attack the President’s family,’ Spicer said.”
