They don't last long.Kayleigh McEnany is leaving President Trump's reelection campaign to serve as the new White House press secretary, two sources confirmed on Tuesday.
The former Republican National Committee spokeswoman and the current spokeswoman for the Trump campaign will take over for outgoing press secretary Stephanie Grisham.
McEnany, 31, has long been a fierce defender of the president in television interviews and through the campaign. She was a frequent presence on the campaign trail, appearing at Trump rallies and participating in events for the group Women for Trump.
[...]
The addition of McEnany is part of a broader overhaul of the White House press shop under new chief of staff Mark Meadows.
[...]
Alyssa Farah is expected to join the West Wing as director of strategic communications, according to one of the two sources who confirmed the shakeup. Farah is currently the Pentagon press secretary and previously served as spokeswoman for Vice President Pence and the House Freedom Caucus.
Ben Williamson, who served as Meadows's chief of staff on Capitol Hill, will become a senior communications adviser in the White House.
McEnany will be the fourth press secretary of the Trump administration. She follows Grisham, Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Sean Spicer. Both Grisham and Spicer lasted less than a year in the job.
The Hill
She did jack shit. She didn't hold one single press conference.The White House announced earlier Tuesday that Grisham would depart as press secretary to return to the East Wing as the first lady's chief of staff and spokeswoman.
Whatever.The outgoing press secretary did appear frequently on Fox News programs, where she was occasionally asked about the lack of briefings. She attributed the decision to Trump’s accessibility and her belief that reporters used the briefings as “theatre” to boost their profiles.
