32. Hope Hicks is one of the staffers who quit immediately after the November election
Mon Jan 2, 2023, 12:23 PM
Jan 2023

Many of them were gone before the crazy "Stop the Steal" plan was formed, because they were out looking for new jobs. Some claimed they were out with Covid, and that may have been true too. But my point is, they KNEW or suspected what Chump was cooking up after the election was lost. They KNEW they wanted no part of it, just as Mike Pence knew.

I've been on DU for long enough to remember when we made fun of Hope on almost a daily basis. But I do give her credit for getting the hell out of the White House and having nothing to do with the attempted coup.

If she had really wanted to be the heroine, she could have blown the whistle beforehand and told the media and the voters what Chump was doing. But that's also true for Mike Pence, Pat Cipollone and others too. They weren't heroes, not by a long shot.
