RNC chief of staff resigns amid rash of departures

Source: Politico

Sara Armstrong, the top staffer at the Republican National Committee, is departing, according to three people familiar with the move — the latest in a string of high-level departures at the committee.

Armstrong, the RNC's chief of staff, is exiting to take a senior job at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. She had been serving in the chief of staff role since early this year after helping to oversee President Donald Trump's inauguration planning.

Armstrong is the sixth staffer to leave the RNC in just over the month. A handful of aides in the committees data department have left recently amid a change in departmental leadership.

Armstrong is getting out of TreasonWeasel Town (R) before the indictments start spewing.

Looks like Manafort's notes point to the republican party getting pumped up by massive moneybucks from the freaking russian kremlin money mobsters.

Disgusting. No wonder she bailed.

Fuck ups, all of them.

Create a way for working people to have more disposable income, that's how you get economy going.

Money trickles up anyway. Corporations will always get their profits.
