Trump to name longtime loyalist Hope Hicks as new communications director

Trump to name longtime loyalist Hope Hicks as new communications director

http://www.rawstory.com/2017/08/trump-to-name-longtime-loyalist-hope-hicks-as-new-communications-director/

President Donald Trump has struggled to find staff that will work with him. Famously, he blew through a communications director Anthony Scaramucci in less than two weeks. Perhaps that is why he’s decided to name longtime loyalist Hope Hicks to the post.

The Daily Caller cites a White House insider that revealed 28-year-old Hicks has accepted the position. The former model has stayed close to Trump’s side, though largely out of the spotlight. She has been doing “strategic communications” for Trump since entering the White House, according to her Twitter biography.

Hicks drew criticism in July after it was disclosed that her salary is equal to the senior-most aides in the White House, despite having little experience.

Hicks previously worked for Trump and was named among the top 30 under 30 by Forbes.

Trump's girlfriend? Didn't I read that here on DU last week that he's having an affair with her?

I don't know why people can't see that working in this administration is only going to be a stain on their careers.
