Hope Hicks, the former White House communications director and President Donald Trump's longtime aide and confidante, was known among reporters for softening her boss's sharp edges and relaying his strongly-worded messages in more pleasant terms.
But according to a New York Times report, Hicks, who exited her White House position on March 29, regularly conceived of some of the sharpest personal attacks in Trump's Twitter feed.
Hicks, along with White House director of social media Dan Scavino, helped the then-presidential candidate craft many of his infamous tweets from the campaign trail, The Times reported in a new profile of Scavino. And Hicks would supply some of the most devastating attacks.
"She'd have absolute daggers," a former campaign official told The Times of Hicks.
No wonder Trump liked Hicks so much, and felt so lost without her.
She was the nasty ass Yin to his nasty ass Yang.
Of course it is not as if her leaving has softened any of Trump's tweets, though they certainly somewhat less articulate.
Remember, it's always the quiet ones that you never want to turn your back on.
