Sanders, who has become a confidante of President Trump since the departure of former communications director Hope Hicks, has told friends that she plans to leave the administration at the end of the year.Shah is also considering his exit, but he has not yet settled on an exact date. Neither Sanders nor Shah responded to repeated requests for comment before this story was published.
Shortly after the CBS report, Sanders tweeted:
Sanders doesn’t say she’s staying, just that she loves her job, but she doesn’t mention leaving either.
