On Wednesday, Hope Hicks has announced that she has decided to leave her post as the communications director of White House. She delivered her words with tears during the White House communications meeting. The U.S President Trump had shown his anger on the testimony of Hicks in front of the U.S House Intelligence Committee. Trump showed his anger due to she faced testimony of at least 9 hours in front of the panel and admitted that she told White Lies on the behalf of Trump. It is much doubt that this reason forced her to resign. It is expected that senior staffers might consult with Hicks on how to handle the reaction of Mr. President on critical subjects.
Sources have indicated that there is a major candidate Mercedes Schlapp for this post after replacement of Hicks. Schlapp is currently the White House strategic communications head. It is also expected that Hicks departed due to increasing pressure connected to the White House staff secretary Rob Porter. She had been dating Porter during the time when it was announced allegations that he had abused his 2 ex-wives. It was the reason in front of him for his permanent security clearance. Some sources predicted that there might be a reason the White House chief of staff John Kelly is against those connected with Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump. It is important that Kushner was forced into providing access to the most sensitive information.
