Over the course of President Trump’s time in the White House, various reports of staffers leaving, resigning, or facing terminations have followed. Critics have branded the White House as a “revolving door” of sorts, as it pertains to aides for the president.

The latest aide to leave their post is Madeleine Westerhout, a now-former personal assistant to President Trump. Westerhout’s resignation followed after the disclosure of personal details and statements regarding Trump and his family during a dinner with reporters. On Friday, the president spoke with the press, stating Westerhout “had a bad night” during the time which inappropriate comments transpired.
