CNN: Trump 'berated' Hicks after House Intel testimony
She reportedly revealed she was sometimes required to tell “white lies” as part of her work in the White House.
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.”
New York Times columnist and unofficial Trump spokesperson and apologist Maggie Haberman wants you to know that Hicks leaving had nothing to do with anything that went on this past week:

Hope Hicks departure is NOT about yesterday's hearing, per multiple sources. She had planned it before, had been thinking about it for months. She had informed a very small number of people prior to Hill hearing that she planned to leave.

Right, because when a person plans to leave they announce it at the height of controversy surrounding them to make it clear that their leaving had nothing to do with the controversy. :|
I have to assume that Haberman thinks most people are as stupid as most Trump voters are (or maybe as stupid as she is.)
