Under pressure from Trump, Price resigns as health secretary over private plane uproar

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price resigned under pressure from President Donald Trump on Friday in an uproar over Price’s use of costly private charter planes for government business.

His abrupt departure was announced an hour after Trump told reporters he was disappointed in Price’s use of private aircraft and did not like the optics of it.

“Secretary of Health and Human Services Thomas Price offered his resignation earlier today and the president accepted,” the White House said in a statement.

Trump named Don Wright to serve as acting secretary. Wright is currently the deputy assistant secretary for health and director of the office of disease prevention and health promotion.

“I‘m not happy. OK? I‘m not happy,” Trump told reporters on the White House South Lawn.

Trump, unlike Obama, has no loyalty to anyone who screwed up. You screw up, you're gone.

What? It took him 10 days of getting destroyed in the press to do this. He didn't fire Price out of fear that nobody would want that job in the Trump administration shitshow.

And of course he has loyalty to people that screwed up, starting with Flynn. Get a clue.
