Ouch: Trey Gowdy Had a Great Retort to Mick Mulvaney’s Teasing About His Hair

OMB Director and former Congressman Mick Mulvaney poked a little fun at Congressman Trey Gowdy this afternoon for Gowdy’s birthday, but Gowdy hit back 10 times harder with his rejoinder.

Mulvaney teased Gowdy a little bit over his multiple different haircuts over the years:

What do you get for someone on his 60th birthday? A razor and a comb.

Gowdy threw this zinger back at him:

I’m just a couple of haircuts away from equaling the number of staff departures by your WH colleagues. I get it. You are hard to work with. https://t.co/sN0dg8ahrU

Mulvaney tried to zing him back…

If I could defund your haircuts, I would. https://t.co/3SnJM5aq6b

…but no, Gowdy clearly won this round.

(And in case you’re wondering, the two of them are friends and this is just some good-natured ribbing.)
