Media reports in recent weeks found that Paul Ingrassia, who has a history of inflammatory rhetoric, has been accused of sexual harassment and sent racist text messages.

CNN's Scott Jennings suggested that the Trump White House should consider giving Paul Ingrassia the axe on Wednesday morning.

In a statement to the Daily Beast, his lawyer, Edward Andrew Paltzik, questioned the authenticity of the texts. “Even if the texts are authentic, they clearly read as self-deprecating and satirical humor making fun of the fact that liberals outlandishly and routinely call MAGA supporters ‘Nazis,’” Paltzik said.

Paul Ingrassia’s nomination was an obvious debacle, but he’s only the latest addition to a growing list of personnel failures.

The fallout: The destruction sparked complaints from preservationists and Democrats, who say Trump is damaging “the People’s House” to pursue a personal project. Trump abruptly postponed a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Embattled Trump-nominee Paul Ingrassia, 30, reportedly called in reinforcements to secure his confirmation: his mother. Donna Gallo Ingrassia, 61, a Long Island, New York-based real estate agent, attempted to intervene on her son’s behalf by personally visiting the offices of Reps.
