Hicks May Be a Bigger Deal Than Bannon

Two major White House figures are now scheduled to testify on Capitol Hill this week or soon after: Steve Bannon and Hope Hicks. Bannon is set to testify today; Hicks later this week or possibly early next week. Given his centrality to the campaign and the fact that he’s now cut off and seems to have nothing to lose, Bannon may seem like the more consequential testimony. But that’s probably wrong.
