The ex-president’s former communications director returned to Trumpworld in the witness box on Friday.

It was a different story in the lead-up to the 2016 presidential election. Trump hired Hicks, who had previously worked for his daughter’s fashion brand, to serve on his campaign the year prior, and she rose through the ranks, eventually becoming White House communications director. Hicks was working closely with the future president when the Access Hollywood tape, during which Trump bragged about groping women with impunity, was released in the final stage of the campaign.

She called him “a very good multitasker and a very hard worker” and noted that he ran the Trump Organization “like a small family business.” “Everybody that works there in some sense reports to Mr. Trump,” she added. In crafting the campaign’s response to the Post’s outreach, Hicks said she leaned on Trump’s input. One of his initial reactions, she testified, was to say that his comments in the tape “didn’t sound like something he would say.
