Hope Hicks is stepping down but as Trump's fourth White House communications director, at least there is already a healthy network of support in place. 

Anthony Scaramucci, who spent a whirlwind 10 days in the role, was quick to offer Hicks kind words and the wisdom of his experience. 

"Hope Hicks is a world class person and is going on to have an unbelievable career. She did an incredible job," Scaramucci said. "The best is yet to come." 

"The Mooch," as Scaramucci is known, was not the only person who was inspired to send a tweet after news of Hicks' departure broke Wednesday. Two other female White House staffers who have been with Trump from the beginning, Ivanka Trump and Kellyanne Conway, said their good-byes to Hicks on social media.

 

But many of the social media comments were more satirical than supportive.
