Lewandowski and Manafort (Vanity) (Discussion)

Lewandowski and Manafort

I don't know, man. Trump and Lebowski just pulled off the greatest, least expected victory in the history of US politics.

That might sound exaggerated or hyperbole, but it is not.

You should hear Larry Elder go through it. Elder points out there were 16 other candidates, all of them heavyweights. Trump, of whom Elder said was his choice 17 of 17 at the beginning, was given no chance to win, no credibility by anyone.

He was facing sitting Governors, sitting Senators, former Governors, candidates with huge war chests etc...

And Trump had never run for any office ever.

And Trump wiped the floor with all of them. One by one they all fell.

It is the greatest, most surprising and amazing victory ever in US political history. Nothing else compares to it.

So what happens?

The guy who pulled off this victory with Trump is replaced with a former advisor to Dole 96.

You are just trolling here...just admit it.

First of all, attempting to imply that all Manafort ever did in his career was advise a failed '96 Dole campaign is akin to saying that all Ronald Reagan ever did was announce ballgames for an Iowa radio station.

Also, you attach way too much significance to Lewandowski's role in the Trump campaign. He did a great job overall but did not singlehandedly get Trump to the nomination as you seem to imply.

I just don’t see him as a kingmaker or some Svengali political animal. Manafort has an impressive political resume.

“What national campaigns has Lew run?”

The historic primary they just ran and won against all odds was a national campaign.

They broke all records, shattered all expectations.

It was the greatest campaign victory in American history.

So they decide to replace the campaign with a Dole and McCain advisor.

All I am saying is it seems the RINOs are getting inside the Trump campaign.

I am saying Trump had better not lose and screw this up.

“He did a great job overall but did not singlehandedly get Trump to the nomination as you seem to imply.”

I never implied that at all.

I simply stated the fact, they won historically with Lebowski

Manafort is a career RINO hack and lobbyist for foreign concerns.

RNC likes Manafort in, Lebowski out.

That about sums it up, Sam.

Repeat after us...

i, finnegan, am a troll.

For all you know (eh hem), Corey is still “IN”. You never know what he’ll be doing for Trump, outside of this campaign.

If there weren’t so many cunning runts in the GOP establishment to deal with, I’d be inclined to agree with you.

Corey lands on his feet though, the Trumps will make sure of it.

Manafort also brought you REAGAN in 1980...he knows this dance very well

Right. It's a unity game now. Lewandowski was a JADO rocket.

Your definition of trolling: making us think about something I don’t want to think about.

All I am saying is Trump had better not screw up.

I am all in for Trump.

He better not back down and better not screw up with his RINO careerists.

I think Corey was exhausted and it was showing in his personality, not his fault of course, for a year Corey has not stopped and his family I am sure was also strained!!! Corey WILL be taken care of by Trump he rewards LOYALTY!!!! Corey probably feels as though the weight of the world has been lifted off his shoulders Trump had a VERY SMALL team and Corey did a GREAT JOB!!!!

Campaigns make changes all the time Don’t forget that Reagan in 1980 fired his campaign guy John Sears and replaced him.

Look Corey did a fantastic job and maybe they felt they needed to go in different direction for the General.
