A new book claims the president often used to "waste Priebus's time" during policy briefings by pelting him with questions about badgers.
When Reince Priebus was the White House chief of staff, President Donald Trump repeatedly asked him whether badgers, the state animal of Priebus' home state of Wisconsin, are"mean to people," how they"work," and how aggressive they can get.
During that time, Trump would often"waste Priebus's time" during briefings about foreign and domestic policy by pelting him with questions about badgers, the book says."After Trump was reminded that the short-legged omnivore was practically synonymous with the Badger State, he'd make a point of bringing it up at seemingly random occasions to his beleaguered chief of staff.
"Trump also wanted to know if the badger had a 'personality' or if it was boring. What kind of damage could a badger to do a person with its flashy, sharp claws?
