Steven Cheung, advisor to the 78-year-old President-elect, reacted to the news on X, calling Feinberg, who first broke the story of the cavalcade leaving Mar-a-Lago, a "fu***** dummy."
"The press has set up a fake, unofficial 'pool' because they want to feel important about themselves," Cheung wrote. "In this case, some idiot at CBS overreacted and set off the fire alarm for no reason thinking they were going to get the scoop of a lifetime."
"Fu***** dummy," he added.
