Mick Mulvaney, the Office of Management and Budget director who President Donald Trump tweeted Friday would serve as acting chief of staff after John Kelly departs in January, has been a loyal Trump supporter—but he didn’t always like him so much.

During a debate with his then-congressional challenger, Democrat Fran Person, on Nov. 2 of 2016, less than a week before Trump was elected president, then-congressman Mulvaney was blunt with those gathered at York Middle School in York, South Carolina.

“Yes, I am supporting Donald Trump, but I’m doing so despite the fact that I think he’s a terrible human being,” he said, according to a report in The State newspaper.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

1. Amazing how contorted the repuglicons can get to kiss their own @sses

And dump is a major @ss. Makes Mulvaney a great @ss-licker.

So what's the payoff other than a cruddy tongue? Are the roubles/koch$ going to be enough for all of these? These currencies are going to be quickly devalued.

4. Why? I just don't get it. He thinks trump is a terrible human being

But he still wants this horrible person to run the damn country?

8. Because he's also a terrible human being

This won’t last long and won’t end well. But he knows what he’s getting into and deserves whatever happens.

5. Despite?

“I am supporting Donald Trump, but I’m doing so despite the fact that I think he’s a terrible human being,” he said, according to a report in The State newspaper.

Shouldn’t that read, “I am supporting Donald Trump BECAUSE I think he’s a terrible human being (and therefore won’t care when I profit from MY job and get all the cash and perks and bennies I can acquire).

6. This should be an interesting working relationship.

Is there a betting pool going yet on how long his tenure will last?

I give it 3 months, tops.

7. Slick Mick (R) was right
