It sure seems like the Trump team has it all under control. Nice to hear from Manafort.

To me it seems like Manafort is the guy they brought in to make Trump lose.

I hope not.

They will do everything in their power to let the Liberals and everyone ELSE cover them with s^%t-THEN wonder why they’re not credible!

Nothing new here.

In my estimation, Trump’s hiring of Paul Manafort was a clarion call that he was in this campaign to win it all!!
Lewandowski was fine for running the primary operation, but Trump recognized he needed a seasoned hand to take over and manage his General Election efforts. Manafort is a proven winner when it comes to the nuts and bolts of a Convention!!
Moreover, Mr. Manafort exudes supreme confidence and makes it crystal clear that no one is going to take advantage of Mr. Trump!!
To me, Paul Manafort is magnificent and his influence is manifested each and every day, especially in shaping how Trump’s message is crafted.

Everything up to and including this point has pointed to the contrary...

I think you were better when you were crapping all over Trump than you are now.

It’s not about the facts, it’s all about trying to sow paranoia and dissent...

It’s still crapping all over Trump, just a different line of attack.

Go take a look at DC Whispers. Ryan is literally begging Manafort for a speaking role at the convention.

“Ryan is literally begging Manafort for a speaking role at the convention.”

So he can bash Trump and tell us to “vote your conscience”?

Thought he said he would step down.

Stand down, PRyno.

DC Whispers: http://dcwhispers.com/paul-ryan-begged-allowed-speak-trump-gop-convention/

“Apparently, it had nothing to do with wanting to be in Cleveland to support insurgent GOP frontrunner and presumptive presidential nominee, Donald Trump.”

“...and everything to do with growing fears the House Speaker faces a very real challenge to retain his seat in Congress as Republican primary opponent and Trump supporter, Paul Nehlen, is surging in his bid to unseat Paul Ryan.:

Good interview.....

You can see the difference ul and Corey. And I think Trump played it just right....keeping Manafort under wraps until the juncture between the primaries and convention.

I hope they will run the convention efficiently, after all, it’s a spring board to the general election and Republicans need to focus on uniting in support of Trump and focus on defeating Hillary and the Dems.

Sorry to burst your never Trump bubble but Manafort is the Godfather of campaign and convention politics. Better stock up on Sore Cruzeraid to drink while watching next week. LOL!

Manafort is worth every penny they are paying him!!! He is confident and loyal. We will win with him. I bet the Dems are livid he is working for us instead of them.

Gotta recommend Lou Dobbs. He has given Paul Ryan hell, wide open. Last night Lou reminded viewers of the globalist donors he is beholden to.

Dobbs said Ryan is appearing at the convention to push Paul Ryan and his own agenda, without regard to the nominee and his agenda.

The audacity of Paul Ryan is enough to burn a bridge. He has to go!

Nehlen for Wisconsin!
