    Ehhh, Qusay and Uday are obviously Eric and Don Jr. though. Besides, Saddam DID have a favorite daughter that he creepily doted on and an idiot son-in-law who tried to sell out to the CIA, who decided he had no useful intel and sent him back to Iraq.

    NBC News reports the drop in morale since, yes yes, Hope left the White House.

    God, that joke's just too easy, it's not funny. Problem is, we can't say "Hicks have left the White House" because they still have Huckabee-Sanders, Sessions, and Pence heyoooooooo

    This week's surprise departure of White House communications director Hope Hicks struck at the heart of President Donald Trump’s diminishing inner circle and fueled public perception of an administration seemingly incapable of stability.

    But on Thursday, the White House opted to say nothing at all about Hicks’ imminent exit or about who might be tapped to become the president's fifth communications director.

    Behind the scenes, sources suggest that morale is waning at the White House. Two people close to the administration tell NBC News that Trump is angry and depressed after losing Hicks, whom he had looked upon as one of his own children.

    A third source familiar with the matter said the president and Hicks shared a “misty” goodbye after her resignation on Wednesday.

    Hicks, 29, has been a longtime member of the Trump family's inner circle, having served as press secretary for his presidential campaign before being tapped to join the White House staff. Hicks, a former Ralph Lauren model, previously worked for the Trump Organization and for Ivanka Trump's fashion brand.

    She assumed the role of communications director last summer after an eventful 11-day tenure by Anthony Scaramucci.

    White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders dismissed questions about Hicks’ departure or on any potential replacements at the daily briefing Thursday, saying she had no personnel announcements to make.

    Most significantly, however, White House officials fear that Hicks’ departure will leave the president unmoored. Hicks and Trump’s former bodyguard, Keith Schiller, were among the closest nonfamily members to join the president at the White House. Schiller left the job last summer.

    Two administration officials note that she was among the few people able to influence Trump on messaging, at times helping him craft tweets or, on occasion, even stopping him from sending posts that might do more harm than good — something even Kelly, a retired four-star general, has not managed to do.

    "The people who are trying to protect the president from himself and his tweets have lost an ally with Hope's departure," one of the sources said

    The guy who wrote Art of the Deal gives his take on Hope Hicks' departure.

    "Hope Hicks is an enabler with spectacularly bad taste in men who ended up in a hell of her own making," wrote Tony Schwartz on Twitter. "She's lived too much too soon. I'm sure there is a moral in this story, but for the life of me, I can't figure out what it is."

    Kelly has been trying to leave for a minute now, everyone knows he drank the koolaid and is in too deep at this point.
    Trending on Facebook is that McMaster is leaving the White House, perhaps as early as next month.

    No, she's been linked to Porter and Lewandowski. Don't shit where you eat, especially with deplorables like those two.
