WASHINGTON (AP) – A senior administration official is sounding an alarm about President Donald Trump’s “amorality” and “impetuous” leadership style in an unsigned opinion piece published in The New York Times.
The newspaper describes the author of the unsigned column only as “a senior official in the Trump administration.”
President Donald Trump says it’s “really a disgrace” that an unsigned op-ed critical of him and written by a senior administration official has been published.
In response, Trump says of the Times: “They don’t like Donald Trump and I don’t like them.”
The White House press secretary says the author of the “resistance” op-ed published by The New York Times is a “coward” who should “do the right thing and resign.”
Sarah Huckabee Sanders says the author – identified only as a senior administration official – has chosen to “deceive, rather than support, the duly elected President of the United States.” She also accuses the individual of putting himself or herself ahead of the will of the American people.
Sanders also says the Times should apologize for publishing it.
