The Latest: Trump spokesman takes a pass on White House job

The Latest: Trump spokesman takes a pass on White House job

7:55 p.m.

One of {the} senior communications staffers {for Trump, who lost the popular vote} says he will not take the job of White House communications director after all.

Jason Miller said in a statement Saturday that he’s decided not to accept the role offered to him ... so he can spend more time with his family.

Miller was one of the main spokesmen for {the} transition team. He says he and his wife are expecting their second daughter in January and “this is not the right time to start a new job.”

He says that after spending the past week with his family, “it is clear they need to be my top priority right now.”

It seems the guy knows a career-ending move when he sees one.
