Hope Hicks looks down at her notebook. With a red pen she neatly crosses out the name:
-HOPE HICKS

She weeps and closes the notebook...

The White House Communications Director Job is just a few steps away from becoming the Defense Against The Dark Arts job at Hogwarts in terms of turnover. https://t.co/47M5kE7nwl

what if this entire administration to date has just been a setup for the punchline "No Hope; radio!"

— Ariel Edwards-Levy (@aedwardslevy) February 28, 2018

Trump: "Hope Hicks, you admitted to telling lies for me, which is against your loyalty pledge. You must now commit...sudoku!"

Hicks: "...seppuku?"

Trump: "I know what I said."

Hicks: "I think...I think I'm just going to go."

Puns I’m seeing:

Hope is lost
Audacity of Hope

There once was a staffer named Hicks
Surrounded by men dumb as bricks
And for reasons not yet known
That by Mueller will be shown
She flipped as Trump fell through the Styx.#HopeHicks
