In a normal presidency this would be a month long scandal. It'll be out of the news cycle by Valentine's Day

he was Trump's Chief of Staff until he resigned Wednesday after allegations of domestic abuse surfaced.

reportedly the Trump administration knew of the allegations a while ago and did nothing.

because they knew and only fired him when they realized the public would find out

Apparently he's dating Hope Hicks and she helped write the letter defending him.

What a world.

He did bad shit, bad shit was known about when they hired him, and they defended him right up until he resigned

I haven't seen anything to suggest Trump knew about it at the time Porter was hired; I don't know if or why such information would be relayed to him. This may be a case where Trump was legitimately out of the loop.

You mean the party that is fiercely behind a thrice married adulterer is being hypocritical of something when it comes to "family values?" I'm shocked. SHOCKED I say!

Seems pretty consistent to me. He resigned as a result--or was forced to resign, as that's how it somehow goes--bit either way after it surfaced he is no longer in a representative position with the party.

the inconsistent part is how people high up in the administration knew of the allegations a long time ago and stayed silent.
