It's not the cough that carries your off - but the coffin they carry you off in!
Donald Trump takes exception to his chief of staff Mick Mulvaney coughing during an interview and asks him to leave the room.
The coughing started as Trump gave some rambling non-answer about his financial affairs and refusal to release his tax returns.
So who knows, maybe it was a signal to the boss to stop digging himself into such a big hole on 'live' TV?
Because Trump has reneged on a promise to release his tax returns - even though every American president has done so going all the way back to Richard Nixon.
