Trump unhappy with top health official over travel
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump declared Wednesday that he's "not happy" with his top health official, putting Tom Price's job in jeopardy after his costly charter flights triggered a congressional investigation of administration travel.
Asked whether he's planning on firing Price, Trump responded: "We'll see."
A former GOP congressman from Georgia, Price played a supporting role in the fruitless Republican effort to repeal Barack Obama's health care law, which has been another source of frustration for the president. Price is known as a conservative policy expert, but his penchant for taking private charter aircraft on the taxpayer's dime is creating new headaches for the White House.
