Donald Trump hires veteran GOP operative Rick Wiley
Washington Post ^ | April 13 at 3:50 PM | By Philip Rucker

Posted on 04/13/2016 1:24:55 PM PDT by dynoman

The Trump campaign said Wednesday that Rick Wiley — who has more than two decades of experience in state and national politics and most recently served as campaign manager for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s presidential bid — is joining the operation as national political director.

“Rick is a seasoned political expert with a very successful career in winning elections,” Trump said in a news release. “He brings decades of experience, and his deep ties to political leaders and activists across the country will be a tremendous asset as we enter the final phase of securing the nomination.”

Wiley said in the same release, “Voters are frustrated with the political status quo in our country and are hungry for an outsider to shake up Washington. Donald Trump has energized millions of hard working people across the country with his no-nonsense straight talk and will bring his record of success to tackle the real problems that face our nation.”

Hiring Manaforte and Wiley are good moves.

I know about Pollyanna politics coming out of D.C. and their practiced art of lip service. They've got it down to a fine science.

I'll put my faith in the only person on the stage who actually accomplished and created big league things in life. I see the others as corrupt parasites.

Attempting to be "cute", you just look like the moron you are.

It should have read "Bibo, ergo sum". I misspelled it. You didn't have to be such an ass about it. It's all part of being a Trump supporter I suppose.

The cRooster do crow a lot don’t they. They are soooo desperate to maintain the pretense that their candidate has a chance of winning. And why does Cruz always look like he’s sucking on a lemon? I don’t like that.

There is no human on earth that can step in now and prevent what’s coming.

Of course I’ll vote for Trump or Cruz if I can. But I have no illusions.

You could be right. There might be a very slim chance Trump can steer this country on the right path. At least he gives us some chance unlike the GOPe or the Dems.

This might be our last chance.

Yep and he and Rove, after supporting Tea Party candidate Christine O’Donnell after she primaried Castle for Biden’s seat, turned on her.

Then they went on to destroy her.

At least a chance to kick start another chance at an opposition movement now that we’ve been cast adrift by the sleeper cells.

Very true.

What’s up with his “stealth” consultant who won’t let anyone see his twitter account?

JP Moore

https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=jp+moore+twitter

Seems to be connected to Paul J. Manafort

Don’t be so sure. You think you know things, which you don’t.

Maybe not, but if the house is on fire, and the floor is collapsing I’d rather someone at the top who has actually accomplished and created many great things. As opposed to yet another do nothing lawyer on the government payroll.

Just makes sense to me.

I could say the same thing back to you. I know what Wisconsin is like, having lived and worked there over three of the last five years. Wisconsin's DRE system at least maintains a paper trail for voting, so electronic rigging can be checked better than states like South Carolina, which have NO paper trail.

If the Establishment in Wisconsin could have rigged the machines, Scott Walker would have never been elected in the first place as the Dems ran the show and Walker is not Establishment.

Oh please, Walker is every inch establishment. You might live there, but are ignorant. I suggest you buy a clue.
