Priebus echoing his complaints about media coverage. The truth is we dont have problems in the west wing. You read about the stories i dont get along with bannon. Actually, weve gelled as a team, and we get along great, and were working well together, and the amount of drama and spin that you read about mostly in the Washington Daily Gossip Rags is unbelievable stuff and isnt true.
