Senior Communications Official Tied to Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump Exiting White House
Former Top Hollywood Public Relations Executive
The Trump administration is losing yet another senior official. Josh Raffel became deputy communications director quickly thanks to the bond he built with Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump, Axios reports. Raffel originally was hired by the administration to head communications for the Office of American Innovation.Â
“Josh is honest, passionate and thoughtful,” Ivanka Trump told Axios. “Whether it was offering strategic guidance on the communications for tax reform or a foreign trip, Josh’s guidance was invaluable. The White House won’t be the same without him.”
Raffel was a top Hollywood public relations executive and will return to the private sector.
