Hope Hicks, the White House communications director and one of President Trump’s longest-serving advisers, said Wednesday that she was resigning.

Ms. Hicks, 29, a former model who joined Mr. Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign without any experience in politics, became known as one of the few aides who understood his personality and style and could challenge the president to change his views.

Ms. Hicks had been considering leaving for several months. She told colleagues that she had accomplished what she felt she could with a job that made her one of the most powerful people in Washington, and that there would never be a perfect moment to leave, according to White House aides.

Her resignation came a day after she testified for eight hours before the House Intelligence Committee, telling the panel that in her job, she had occasionally been required to tell white lies but had never lied about anything connected to the investigation into Russia’s interference in the 2016 election.

She did not say what her next job would be, and her departure date was unclear, but it is likely to be in the next few weeks.

Ms. Hicks said that she had “no words” to express her gratitude to the president, who responded with his own statement.

Wow! She was there from day one. I'm disappointed to see her leave. What does she mean she did all she could? It's not like work is over - got legislation to pass, midterms, reelection, etc. She was just named most powerful in Washington.

She is so beautiful.

Just notating.

Don’t quite understand why she is leaving.
She has been a loyalTrump staff member.

If anybody should be leaving, it’s Javanka.

Disagree. Sessions and McMaster should be the ones leaving.

Hicks is smart to go now. The Deep State and the ‘Rats aim to impeach the President and with Trump wobbling on the 2nd the GOP will lose the House and Senate virtually guaranteeing it.

[CGASMIA68]

Yea right AKA Bull Shit, like you can reference more than 1 occasion that demonstrated this.

[Lopeover]

No n the radio, it said that her job with the President required her to tell “white lies!” Knock this 💩off!
