Or if one of their spokemen spoke like Roger Stone, long time friend and employee of Trump. Sounds like things are pretty explosive on The Donald front. Someone had to bleed.
“................A spokesperson for the Trump campaign told DailyMail.com that it was The Donald who ended things with Stone, however. Not the other way around.
‘Mr. Trump fired Roger Stone last night,’ the campaign official said. ‘We have a tremendously successful campaign and Roger wanted to use the campaign for his own personal publicity.’
‘He has had a number of articles about him recently and Mr. Trump wants to keep the focus of the campaign on how to Make America Great Again.’
Earlier this week Stone took a lashing from media personalities Roland Martin of TV One News, who is black, Ana Navarro, a GOP strategist and CNN analyst who is Hispanic, and Geraldo Rivera of Fox News after he criticized them as ‘quota hires.’
‘Ana Navarro the dumbest person on TV since CNN fired moron @rolandmartin - both quota hires,’ he said. ‘If u have and heard Ana Nararro and Roland Martin they are so dumb and unqualified that one can reach no other conclusion.’
In another Tweet Stone attacked Rivera, also Hispanic, saying: ‘@GeraldoRivera is an embarrassing hack fired by FOX for his lack of ratings. Ailes kept him around long past any value. #pathetic’
Rivera ripped into in a reply tweet and said, ‘when I see you around Fox News I’m going to kick your racist a** punk.’
On other occasions, Stone has directed his ire at the Bush family on Twitter, claiming earlier this summer that family matriarch Barbara Bush ‘was stinking drunk at Jeb’s announcement’ and tagged it with the hashtag ‘s**t-faced.’

“.......Stone is a veteran Republican strategist who once worked for President Richard Nixon, and has been one of Trump’s closest confidantes for a lengthy period of time. He was the chairman of Trump’s exploratory presidential committee in 2000, and a source close to Stone said they have been friends for about 35 years. Costa described Stone as Trump’s “longest serving adviser.”
The split between Trump and Stone follows extensive infighting on Trump’s campaign that spilled out from behind the scenes after a July 31 story from Business Insider that revealed a long history of racially charged Facebook posts that were made by former adviser Sam Nunberg. Following the story, last Sunday, the Trump campaign fired Nunberg, who was a protege of Stone’s and had clashed with campaign manager Corey Lewandowski.
After Nunberg’s firing, anonymous allies of his told multiple media outlets they believed Lewandowski was somehow responsible for the Business Insider story about his Facebook posts. Lewandowski was not involved in uncovering Nunberg’s social media history, but the tension between the two camps on the campaign increased to the point that New York Magazine’s Gabriel Sherman described the situation as a “civil war.”

Wow. Certainly reassuring about this man’s ability to run a political organization.
