[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is a serious error in professional judgment for any communications director -- much less for that of the world's arguably most important organization -- to continue to participate in a public relations crisis in which they have such a clear conflict of interest.  The White House's initial response in drafting, issuing, and approving certain statements, including that of John Kelly, illustrates how that personal conflict of interest may have affected the WH judgment.  In any Fortune 500 company that lapse could get one fired, but this is luckily a family-run outfit.[/quote]

+1  Trump is praising Hicks so highly now because he knows it's more logical for her to start singing like a canary about everything she knows to Mueller and get out of that circus.  We'll see if Hicks is smart enough to get out while she still can.  I doubt it.[/quote]

Hope Hicks should take a cue from Rachel Brand and resign.  Ms. Hicks can honestly say that she feels like she has become a distraction to the White House.  Given her telegenic looks I think she has the potential for a lucrative broadcasting career.  [/quote]

The last thing the WH wants to do is have her leave.[/b]  She's distraught and she is a key potential witness against Trump.  They will do everything under the sun to keep her close.[/quote]

Yes, but Hope Hicks has free agency over herself, her career, and her future.  She can consider the White House's preference that she stay, but she is not bound to remain.  This is a natural time for Hope Hicks to move forward with her life.  She can honestly say that she is leaving for personal reasons, namely that she feels that her personal life has become a distraction to the work of this administration.  That decision would reflect that Ms. Hicks places President Trump and the administration before herself, and gives her a non-offensive way out.  She has the potential to earn a very healthy sum as a political commentator.[/quote]
