Trump Reportedly Unhappy with Both Giuliani and Hannity Over That Big Interview

One of the little details contained in tonight’s big New York Times report about President Trump‘s knowledge of the Stormy Daniels payment is the revelation of what POTUS thought about Rudy Giuliani‘s interview.

Giuliani’s disclosure about Michael Cohen‘s now-infamous $130,000 set off a firestorm, and Giuliani has had to clarify his remarks more than once since then.

But per the Times, even though the President hasn’t been that publicly critical of Giuliani––save for a cursory “he’ll get his facts straight” comment––he was actually not happy with how the interview went.

And apparently that includes Sean Hannity:

While some White House officials had insisted that Mr. Trump was pleased with Mr. Giuliani’s performance on Fox News in an interview with Sean Hannity on Wednesday night, two people close to the president painted a different picture. They said that Mr. Trump was displeased with how Mr. Giuliani, a former New York mayor, conducted himself, and that he was also unhappy with Mr. Hannity, a commentator whose advice the president often seeks, in terms of the language he used to describe the payments to Ms. Clifford.
