Why Sean Spicer was told to stop taking Ubers

Turns out there are some Obama-era policies that the Trump administration should have continued.

Speaking at BookExpo, former White House press secretary Sean Spicer said that during the transition, his predecessor Josh Earnest told him, to “stop taking UberX because the drivers will recognize you.”

Spicey, who’s promoting his upcoming tome “The Briefing,” joked that he dismissed the warning because he’s “cheap.”

But he told the crowd, “Sure enough the first UberX I take, the driver turns around and says ‘I know you! I’m going to get a really big tip, right?’ ”
