Former Trump official won't serve as CNN political editor after backlash
-
Instead, Republican operative and former Jeff Sessions spokesperson Sarah Isgur will serve as a CNN political analyst for the 2020 presidential campaign. Isgur's hiring as a political editor was criticized because she would in effect become a gatekeeper in helping shape coverage of the 2020 campaign after recently serving in the Trump administration.
