Over the past few months, some changes in staff were being made within the White House. However, that does not include Health & Human Services Secretary Alex Azar, as President Donald Trump recently tweeted.
Politico reports that Trump went on social media to address the reports of the possible firing of Azar. “Reports that H.H.S. Secretary @AlexAzar is going to be “fired” by me are Fake News. The Lamestream media knows this, but they are desperate to create the perception of chaos & havoc in the minds of the public. They never even called to ask,” tweeted Trump.
Azar also took to clarify the reports on Twitter as well. “Reports of President Trump looking to replace me are #FakeNews. The media continues to smear @POTUS and his administration’s fight against #COVID19 and grossly overlook the historic whole-of-government response that we’ve been delivering under the President’s leadership,” tweeted Azar, who also retweeted Trump’s clarification.
These clarifications followed reports that White House officials were planning to consider replacing Azar. White House officials were reportedly not happy with Azar’s management style as he has supposedly clashed with his deputies often, as well as his handling of internal matters. Some have pinned the blame on Azar for months for mishandling the coronavirus crisis, including the aspect of testing. However, they also have concerns about replacing the HHS Secretary in the midst of a global pandemic. These reports also happened to cite comments from the HHS spokespeople and the White House as well.
In other similar news, Rawstory reports that Trump is also not happy with the early release of his former lawyer Michael Cohen. Cohen served three years in prison as part of a deal that involved hush-money payments made in the service of Trump. The former Trump Organization employee and personal attorney of the President has also been working on a book revealing more details of Trump’s treatment of women, with a plan to release it before the elections in November.
According to those close to Trump, the president is even more concerned with what will be included in Cohen’s book. Trump is said to be looking at legal options against his former fixer, if there is anything that would break attorney-client privilege, defamatory, or libelous.
