Trump has stopped the delegate bleeding by hiring Manafort. Hannity was taken aback by Manafort's confidence that Trump gets 1237. Trump may have been caught off guard, but he sure reacts fast and solves the problem. Trump's genius is that he hires the best and then let's them do their jobs.

I don’t think Trump’s problem has been solved yet. Just hiring one of Roger Stone’s partners doesn’t solve the problem. Trump is still bleeding delegates and I don’t think he has won anything in April, or maybe for a month.

I read the other day that in the 1980 GOP race between GHW Bush, Howard Baker and Ronald Reagan it was Paul Manafort behind the scenes who brought the nomination to Ronald Reagan whom he was working for. This guy is the best at what he does and has been under the radar mostly since his hiring. But Trump finds the best and hires them.
A telling interview the other day somebody was interviewing Manafort and talked about the campaign and who reports to whom. The interviewer says do they report to you? He said no for campaign stuff they report to Mr Landowski(campaign manager), but who do you report to the interviewer asked? “I report directly to Mr Trump”! Shazam we have ourselves a winner!

Interesting, Manafort didn't state Trump would "win" but said he would "do well," in the upcoming NY, PA, and other No. East contests coming up.

Wonder what he knows behind the scenes.

This is one of the plusses for Trump.
He was being ridiculed with respect to Colorado and "following the rules", and like any executive finds a person skilled in "following the rules", then is ridiculed for using someone from "the establishment". Can't have it both ways, people.
