Bill Shine resigns from the White House to advise Trump's 2020 campaign

Source: CNBC

White House communications director Bill Shine will resign from his administration post and advise President Donald Trump's 2020 re-election campaign, the White House announced Friday.

The former Fox News executive joined Trump's communications staff last year. He left the network in 2017 amid criticism of how he handled sexual harassment scandals.

In a statement Friday, Shine said he is "looking forward to working on President Trump's re-election campaign and spending more time with [his] family." It is unclear how large of a role he will have on the president's 2020 campaign as what the White House called a "senior advisor." Trump's re-election effort did not immediately respond to a request to comment.

In another statement released by the White House, Trump said Shine will be "totally involved" in his effort to win a second term in the White House. The campaign has moved to boost its communications staff as it faces a tough re-election effort against a crowded Democratic field.

And be willing to pay through the nose for them after working for trump. trump will never make it that far, and he'll wish he never ran as a lot more exposes him and all those involved very soon. He's raking in money now claiming he will. I think this is just another con job by trump to get his legal bills covered , or some of them, and like Roger Stone is trying to do too from his supporters with phony pleas he's broke to get money with for his legal bills. They're both the same way.
