The following is an excerpt from Let Trump Be Trump by Corey Lewandowski and David Bossie, to be published on December 3.
We were somewhere over New Jersey, on our way to an event in Delaware, on the Trump helicopter when all hell broke loose. On board were Mr. Trump, the campaign’s press secretary Hope Hicks, security chief Keith Schiller, one Secret Service agent and me. Paul Manafort had been part of the campaign for a few weeks, his job to secure enough delegates to push Trump over the top at the Republican National Convention.
When the boss originally asked me to set up a meeting for him with Manafort, I had to think for a second before the name made sense. It was Tom Barrack, the CEO of the investment firm Colony Capital and a friend of the boss’s for 30 years, who recommended Manafort. I made the call, and a dinner was set up for the following week at Mar-a-Lago. The first thing the boss said when he met Paul was, “Wow, you’re a good-looking guy,” the same words he’d said when he first met me. Manafort, who was older than me by about 30 years, had had some work done to secure his youthful appearance.
Manafort had made strategic alliances with members of the Trump family. In April, weeks before the convention, he flew to Florida to meet with members of the Republican National Committee. There, he told them that everything Trump had said up to that point was a ruse—and he was going to show them the real Donald Trump from now on. Paul Manafort was going to change Donald Trump.
While were in the air, heading for Delaware, [Ann Coulter]—tweeted out a quote from Manafort saying that Trump shouldn’t be on television anymore...

Awesome!
I always suspected that Jared is a nice idealistic 35 year old swimming in a shark tank. Should never have been given a decision making level. He has caused a lot of grief.
None of us have any idea if ANY of this article is true. But, regardless, it is hilarious and fun to imagine that it is.
It's an excerpt from Corey Lewandowski's book. I think it's true. He doesn't want to publish lies and have the President come down on him like a ton of bricks.

My point was that reading about Trump ripping Manafort was funny. He can dress you down like a drill sergeant.
Ha. L Drill Sergeants could take lessons. LOL. I'd hate like hell to be on the receiving end of one of those calls.
I want to see that scene on the big screen!
Does anyone speak anymore with the use of the F word?
People who rarely use the F word will when they are upset or pissed off. It’s a good way to know when the person is seriously mad.
Guessing the movie will be R rated due to language.
“Was thinking the same . . . but sadly I am seeing that (verb, noun, adjective) more frequently in the media.”
Just another reminder of how low we have gone as a society.
Does anyone know,
Has Keith Schiller retired? Not sure if I see him at Trump events anymore.
Keith left DC, saying he couldn’t afford to work for the government. But it was right after Kelly became chief of staff, so Kelly could’ve been responsible.
Thanks, I always trusted Keith Schiller more than the obamite the sodomite controlled SS.
“People who rarely use the F word will when they are upset or pissed off. It’s a good way to know when the person is seriously mad.”
General George Patton, known for his colorful language, was once asked why he cursed as he did.
He answered that he wanted his men to remember what he said “and when it’s really important I give it to them double hard and double dirty, that way they never forget.”
Rough language is a tool. A verbal finger in the chest or slap to the face.
Sadly it is becoming too commonplace.
Excellent Point! I actually read some leftist talking point about how "smart people" cuss more than less intelligent people. Of course their point was leftists cuss more because leftists are more intelligent.
Of course the entire premise is all BS. Intelligence has nothing to do with why some cuss more than others but they had to find a reason to cover for their constant use of the F bomb without trying to drive a point home. I personally see it as being lazy. Rather than using the English language and normal words available which can require some effort; they're lazy and just use the F bomb as filler. They probably think it makes them look cool too.
Used sparingly and with purpose is not something I have any problem with. Every other word coming out being F this or F'ing that is just plain lazy IMHO. I had a good friend who was terrible about this so after some cajoling (by all his friends) he finally made an effort to use it less and less until he could be brought into mixed company in public. It did take effort though.
Thanks for the good reply.

Just before I retired from truck driving I made a haul to Rhode Island, which has only 1 truck stop.
After my unload I went there to fax my signed BOL to the office.
The young fellow behind the counter messed up the fax and it wouldn’t go through. On the third attempt he finally got it right.
He brought the BOL and confirmation sheet to me and said “sorry it took so F’n long man. I just F’n F’d up.”
There was a woman in line behind me with two small children who heard every word.
The problem is the entertainment industry and schools play to the lowest common denominator, therefore proper English is no longer taught in the schools and the entertainment industry goes for the easy money.
So many of today’s young people use words that they have no idea the meaning of.
They usually do this to sound intelligent or thoughtful.
I don’t know how many times I have asked a youngster to give the definition of a word they have used and they have no idea of the true meaning of the word.
These are usually the types of people who casually drop the F bomb into every sentence.
There was a quote sometime back that “vulgarity is the refuge of a weak mind” or close to that.
We must have a nation of weak minded sheep.
“Thanks for the good reply.”
I usually have one or two good thoughts a day. :-P
We did, too. We used to call it his "speech impediment."
Highly recommended from this end.
Well written and absolutely the truth.
