latest departure from President Donald Trump’s administration is the latest in a summer filled with staff shake-ups.
President Donald Trump’s administration parted ways with yet another staffer this week.
Politico reported Thursday that Andy Hemming resigned from his position as the White House communications team’s director of rapid response on Monday.
The 31-year-old former Republican National Committee staffer, who was profiled by Politico’s Annie Karni this month, was responsible for finding positive mainstream media news stories about the Trump administration and recirculating those reports to key reporters and talking heads. Hemming’s goal was to ultimately create more mainstream coverage about positive moments for the Trump administration on the very networks the president routinely bashes and refers to as “fake news,” according to Karni’s piece.
