Hope Hicks flies quietly in the eye of the Trump storm (pics - Wow!)
WaPo ^ | Elise Viebeck

Friends and former colleagues described Hicks as a consummate professional: likable, loyal and resilient. The Post spoke with several of them for what is Hicks’s first real media profile, though only three agreed to be quoted. (Hicks herself declined to be interviewed on-the-record for this piece.)

On his plane, Trump flips through cable channels, reads news articles in hard copy, and makes offhanded comments. He’s throwing out his signature bombastic, sometimes offensive tweets. Hicks takes dictation and sends the words to aides somewhere in the Trump empire, who send them out to the world.

Next to campaign manager Corey Lewandowski and other Trump advisers, Hicks cuts a striking figure. Friends joke about her resemblance to model Hilary Rhoda, once the face of Estee Lauder.

Trump would be lucky to have Hicks with him at the White House, they say. But could he really make it there?

As Trump spins in all directions, a truth has emerged for members of his team: while political operatives like Lewandowski might be risking their credibility on this adventure, the experience will likely cement Trump’s loyalty to corporate aides like Hicks, regardless of the outcome in 2016.

Faux News is a fraud, throwing an occasional bone to conservatives just to get them to think they really are conservative.

I read an article a few days ago on Trump's campaign manager Corey Lewandowski and he seems like another sharp guy that Trump has on staff.

Being surrounded with the right people will be key to Trump's future success.

at least if Trump is elected the scenery around the W.H. would sure look a lot better.

I guess you missed the SMU grad, La Crosse capt. and how she’s risen through the ranks (with various organizations) part. Sounds like she’s accomplished quite a bit, for a 26 year old, since her graduation.

She’s very pretty but Trump’s daughters are better looking imo.

Yep. Corey Lewandowski previously worked for the Koch Bros (ran Americans for Prosperity’s national voter-registration effort) and they pick the best of the best.

Look up pictures of Donald jr, Eric ,Barron and Ivanka and Tiffany. The WH would be full of beautiful people who are impeccably dressed

Nor Old Woman Clinton.

They'd fight over her.

When Bill Clinton was asked if he'd ever seen a a flying saucer, his response was "I saw my first flying saucer right after I married Hillary."
