…another one bites the dust. Hope Hicks, abruptly resigned on Tuesday, as reported in the Washington Post (paywall). Yeah, apparently the Cheeto-in-Chief™ wasn’t too thrilled about her testimony before a House intelligence panel on Tuesday, let her know it, and she bailed. According to the same article in the Washington Post:
“Hicks acknowledged to the House intelligence panel Tuesday that she has occasionally told “white lies” for Trump, according to a person familiar with the testimony.”
Uh, yeah, so who doesn’t lie in that place? The Post goes on to say:
“…Hicks had been increasingly feeling the stress of the position, especially in the wake of revelations about her relationship with former staff secretary Rob Porter.”
JFC, so a 29 year-old, former model gets caught sleeping with a wife-beater while cowering in the shadows for the better part of 13 months playing nurse-maid to Dummy Donny, then tries a half-ass claim of executive privilege?!
Yup, definitely time to go “…pursue other opportunities.” I’d say it’s Hope-less too…
