Rumors of Hope Hicks (left, inset with Trump) as a dark horse candidate for the high-level White House role circulated on Friday, one day after multiple reports claimed that John Kelly (right) was considering an imminent departure. Trump himself hinted at Hick's return to the White House when asked about it on Air Force One. 'I love Hope.. I think everybody misses it, I think when they leave for a while,' Trump told reporters. 'Many people would like to come back. Look, there is nothing more exciting than what we're doing.'
