Behind The Scenes Of Trump’s Firing Of Corey Lewandowski
DC Whispers ^ | June 20,2016 | Staff

Posted on 06/20/2016 9:42:10 AM PDT by CreviceTool

A meeting was recently held within the high-rise confines of Trump Tower. On one side of the table sat Donald Trump and his three of his adult children, Ivanka, Don Jr. and Eric.The opposite side of the table included the two primary targets of Mr. Trump’s attention – longtime Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, and a representative for the more recent addition to the Team Trump, veteran political operative, Paul Manafort. Manafort and Lewandowski have been at odds since the day Manafort arrived. Initially there were those within the Trump campaign who were fiercely loyal to the equally loyal, Lewandowski, and that was enough to keep Lewandowski in Donald Trump’s good graces.

“Bernie Goldberg called it - they were pumping Trump until he won the nomination”

What do you/Goldberg mean by “pumping.” If you mean coverage, yes, but inserted into all that coverage, in all cases, was twisting of statements, non-reporting of statements, confrontation, adversarial commentary, venom, and lying. It will continue.

The Drudge headline had a very different take. He used the term “rocked”.

Trump’s public persona in L/V and Corey’s firing may have been due to other factors.

Think Orlando PLUS.....

Trump is no doubt dealing w/ real threats to his life. The violent thugs showing up at his rallies must be taking a toll.

These so called “victims” can be quite vicious...hiding their murderous agenda behind victimhood.

Mexico is running scared.....the cartel violence they are capable of can easily be transferred to the Trump campaign.

Boobamba is in cahoots /w/ all the Trump enemies.....kinda makes you go.....hmmmmmm.

Screaming at Ivankas beautiful friend didn’t help either

Power chicks like power

But they of course retain the victim card when needed

No man gets fired for yelling at a man

Clinton has already bought more than $100 million in ad time.
Trump should focus like a laser on trade and immigration and
basically call Clinton what she is-- a criminal.

Trump needs 1-2 cutting ads, a couple tweets, and Hillary's done for.

"Bill, I'm totally bummed. You never asked me for a BJ."
"Hillary, you're going to be president one day, and
my getting leiniskied is gonna be your biggest asset."

"A vote for me is a vote for a Fully-Fornicating Society.
I'll order non-stop govt aggression over the unborn.
I will end the punishment of an unwanted birth."

================================================

HILLARY'S "HEART OF GOLD" CAMPAIGN STRATEGY Plans to showcase her "kind-heartedness and compassion;" dedicated to sucking-up to the snarling abortion worshippers. Will use the classic Democrat MO---upping the political ante to pump her sagging numbers.

===========================================

Hillary knows the genital-sniffing Planned Parenthood abortion worshippers who populate the Dem party are crazy over the Clintons.

Bill and Hillary are the living breathing embodiment of The Fully-Fornicating Society w/ none of the evidence of sexual activity.....the "nuisance" of an actual child being born.

Hillary and Bill successfully exploited Bill's ability to have sex w/ younger women.

Bill gives sex-obsessed lefties a vicarious thrill....visions of the married, gray-haired Clinton getting a young WH intern to crawl under his desk to give him a BJ is better than Viagra.

Lewandowski sounds ...defeated... in his interview with Dana Bash. I don’t think that leaving was his choice. But he’s a team player and is accepting his fate.

As an aside tidbit on CNN's correspondent, Dana Bash (one of the chief anti-GOP and anti-Trump nasty bee-itches and news manipulators on that network), married fellow CNN correspondent, John King (another anti-Trumper) in 2008.

He was Roman Catholic, he converted to Judaism for her before they married. They split in 2012. It was her second divorce.

She conducted the interview of Corey Lewandowski linked just above.

If this politically psychotic "journalist" stated on the air that the sun rose in the east, I wouldn't believe her and would question her motives for stating same.

He fought it out with Hope Hicks recently and screamed at her that she was dead to him etc

She’s Ivankas pal.....and pretty too and Trumps spokesperson in chief

The three first family kids said enough

Dad balked supposedly

The Manafort basically said he or me

The rest is pretty obvious

I watched Fox news pump up Ted Cruz for the entire primary.

Weak attempt on your part to conflate two issues. There’s no contradiction between the poster’s comment and the founders’ vision of separation of powers.

The founders saw a need for an Executive branch and, within the context of separation of powers, a ‘man in charge’.

She was longing for a man to run America, not the Executive branch.

At least on the surface it seems that Trump has treated Lewandowski with infinite grace... there had been talk for some time about conflicts within the campaign structure - a cancer that must eventually be exorcised. Trump stood by Lewandowski in the ridiculous effort of the media to paint a picture of the aide pulling a journalist to the floor - which the video failed to support in the least.

When a cancer is cut out sometimes healthy local tissues must be sacrificed, but the outcome is the important goal. I was pleased to hear Lewandowski continue to support his candidate... all seems fair and proper.

Trump has a field of fire that is unbeatable. I simply cannot believe that a world-class racketeer and extortionist can not only run roughshod over the law but also rich and powerful world leaders, and run for President - and so successfully. It is a symptom of how successfully Odamna and the Democraps have destroyed all the things that have made America great.

When Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and all the other entitlements run out of money these rats - like all smart rats - will desert the sinking ship with their ill-gotten gains and the people will be left to sweep up the mess.

Excellent analysis, Bob.

Yes, Mr. Trump is in the center of a unparalleled field of ripe target possibilities. Now if he can only discipline and focus his rhetoric to zone in for the attack on the really important targets represented by Hillary and her positions, he'll emerge on top in November.
