- When Reince Priebus was the White House chief of staff, President Donald Trump often subjected him to "sustained questioning about badgers," the state animal of Priebus's home state of Wisconsin, a new book reports.
- According to "Sinking In The Swamp: How Trump's Minions and Misfits Poisoned Washington," by Daily Beast reporters Lachlan Markay and Asawin Suebsaeng, Trump asked Priebus if badgers are "mean to people" how they "work," and what they eat.
- Trump reportedly raised these questions while Priebus was trying to brief him on domestic and foreign policy, the book said.
- At one point, Trump reportedly also asked Priebus whether badgers have a "personality" or if they are boring, and he wondered if Priebus could show him pictures of badgers.
That's according to "Sinking In The Swamp: How Trump's Minions and Misfits Poisoned Washington," a new book by Daily Beast reporters Lachlan Markay and Asawin Suebsaeng.
Priebus served as Trump's chief of staff for rougly six months, from when Trump took office to the end of July 2017.
Holy shit.
