White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer refused to comment on Wednesday after news broke that former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort had once pushed a plan that was meant to “greatly benefit the Putin Government.”
“It would be inappropriate for us to comment on a person who is not a White House employee,” the press secretary insisted.
Earlier this week, Spicer downplayed the five months Manafort spent running Trump’s campaign, calling him someone “who played a very limited role for a very limited amount of time.”
