Brit-boy Fume Hume having an orgasm over this.
Actually, this was highly predictable. You can only have one manager, and Manafort has been it for a couple of months. My guess is that Lewandowski just wasn’t happy taking orders from Manafort.
Again?
Ya fiyud!
Bad news for Hillary. Manafort will now be in charge of the campaign.
CL has been a ball and chain for many months. This move comes way too late. Though many here at FR will find some sort of “genius” in this move. [sigh]
This is a big bunch of nothin’.
Lewandowski got the Trump campaign underway, was an integral part of the primary process, and Trump stood by him when he was unjustly maligned and lied about by that bimbo Michelle Fields. If Trump had any doubts about Lewandoski at all, that would have been the time he would have dumped him.
Manafort is a veteran, he was at the center of the Reagan campaign along with William Casey and Ed Rollins. He knows how to win, and that is exactly what he’s going to do.
Thank you Corey, good luck and God bless.
Watching Stuart Varney and I’ve come to the conclusion Varney holds Donald Trump in disdain. He’s acting, well maybe not acting, like a tool for the establishment!
Trump is ABSOLUTELY finished THIS time.
Revolutionaries seldom survive the Revolution.
Lewandoski was the torch bearer needed to help scorch the earth, and then salt the fields of primary opponents. How many of those have ANY political future? “Low Energy” Jeb?, “Lyin Ted”, “Little Marco”? A job well done, thank you. (Probably a nice check to go along with the dismissal.)
As has always be said, “Every toolbox needs a Hammer”. The right tool for the job. But, if the only tool you have is a hammer, then every problem looks like a nail.
Not what you need for the future. Pivoting at this time to Manafort for the convention makes sense.
The Rat media is hailing the demise of Trump, but Trump is a great businessman and fires those that are not cutting it. Unlike all of the slugs in Government service, that know they have a job for life on the Government dole.
I don’t know as I’ve ever heard who runs Hillary’s campaign. Does anyone know? It has to be one of the old hold-overs from the early days. They’re all still around, I’m sure - we couldn’t be lucky enough to have seen the end of most of them.
The Donald expects and demands results. No results=no job. IOW “You’re fired.” Go Trump!
There were reports there was infighting with Manafort, but I had heard that Lewandowski was closer to Trump. I wonder if the poll numbers have something to do with it.
So happy that Manafort has the top job. We will see much calmer waters in the future! Looking forward to Trump focusing on what matters...the people’s business.
This is the Clinton’s campaign worst nightmare. I expect the Trump campaign to scale up, with a rapid response team, coordinated talking points for surrogates, etc.
This is a fantastic development.
Lewandoski always won the in house battles because he did not care if Trump was undisciplined; being a ‘Yes” man gave Corey job security.
If Manafort can instill a little bit of self discipline in Trump’s approach, not change in positions, Trump can win this election.
Trump has only been a politician for one year and Corey had no experience with national campaigns. We need to get up to speed to face the Clinton machine.
Michelle Fields must be gloating.
It was too good to be true....that Fields had slipped away into irrelevance. Now, the lamestream will find her, shove a mike in her face....and here we go again.
Sources say Ivanka told her dad Lewandowski had to go, or she would go. They apparently could not work together.
Thank you Corey. You did a great job. :)
Does Trump want to lose?
Manafort is the GOPe Trojan Horse.
