President Donald Trump’s highest-ranking black official, Ja’Ron Smith, has left his job becoming the first White House departure post-Election Day
Bloomberg News reported that Smith, who worked under Jared Kushner, had his last day in the administration Friday.
A White House official told The Hill that Smith’s exit was long-planned and was coming regardless of the election result, which looks highly favorable to Trump’s Democratic rival Joe Biden.
Smith told PBS Newshour that he will become the executive director of the Center for Advancing Opportunity.
It’s described as an organization that ‘supports research in removing barriers and creating opportunities in fragile communities.’
Smith added that he still supports the president and hope he’s able to win re-election.
