This comes after Trumps top digital media strategist quit after less than 48 hours on the job.
Kevin Kellems, Trump's director of surrogates, submitted his resignation on Friday, telling colleagues it had been a "brief" and "interesting experience."
"To whom it may concern: i hereby resign my appointment as Director of Surrogates for Mr. Trump," he wrote in a note sent to staff and acquired by POLITICO. "While brief, it has been an interesting experience, and am proud of the contributions made through our early-phase project endeavors. Also have enjoyed meeting some fine and dedicated individuals throughout the organization. Look forward to running across several of you going forward."
Kellems was hired in mid-June to manage the often rambunctious Trump allies who go out to speak in defense of the candidate or to push the campaign's message.

(182,627 posts)This is not only when they make the most money but also when they network for the next position. I've worked with pol ops on the Kaine campaign who left Va to go to work in California for the congressional midterm. Jumping ship from a national campaign is just absurd. Unless the campaign is absurd.
