President Trump reportedly berated former White House communications director Hope Hicks the day before her resignation, according to a new report.
CNN’s Erin Burnett reported Wednesday that Trump was angry with Hicks following her closed-door testimony to the House Intelligence Committee, in which she reportedly revealed she was sometimes required to tell “white lies” as part of her work in the White House.
Burnett reported one of Trump’s “close allies” told CNN that Trump asked Hicks after her testimony “how she could be so stupid.”
“Apparently, that was the final straw for Hope Hicks,” Burnett said.
Hicks, one of Trump’s closest advisers, announced her resignation from the White House Wednesday.

After Trump’s gun grab without due process statement yesterday, I’ll bet Ms. Hicks will be glad to be gone from the White House. I can’t wait to hear the official backpedaling statement from the next communications director or the press secretary later on today. This should be very creative.
