Confirmed: Disarray Inside Donald Trump’s Campaign as Ted Cruz Gains Ground
Breitbart ^ | April 6, 2016 | Alex Swoyer

A source close to Donald Trump’s campaign verified Politico’s recent report of “disarray” inside Donald Trump’s campaign. “There’s truth to that,” the veteran political strategist said.

Breitbart News learned that the Trump campaign is struggling to organize and settle the power struggle inside the campaign after new-hire Paul Manafort was brought on to lead the campaign’s delegate strategy.

Manafort met with Trump on Wednesday to discuss strategy.

Also, CNN reported a potential shake-up with Trump’s campaign staff. “Campaign changes could be in the works after the billionaire lost the Wisconsin primary and is facing an uphill climb to clinch the Republican presidential nomination before the convention,” CNN said.

CNN adds that Manafort is embracing a more expanded role, which raises questions about Trump’s current campaign manager Corey Lewandowski’s future leading the campaign.

Lewandowski on Monday pushed back on talk that his role is shrinking and emphasized that new hires are needed as the campaign goes forward. “This is like a small business,” Lewandowski told CNN. “You start off small and there’s a core group of people and then you have some success and the business grows.”

I can't wait for the moment of realization when it finally dawns on deluded Cruzers that this isn't happening, that this is literally the exact same B.S. spouted by a losing GOP presidential primary candidate for as long as I can remember (Pat Robertson in 1988; Buchanan 1996; Paul 2008; Paul and Santorum in 2012).

"Wait, you mean the same article posted ten times a day and only slightly reworded about Cruz's amazing stealth delegate strategy was bogus?!"

>> Disarray inside the Trump machine.

A delusional fantasy for the committed GOP-e idiots.

At least Cruz doesn’t go around saying, “I’m awesome at being awesome. No one’s more awesome at being awesome than me.” Trump thinks he is running for 3rd grade class president.

Cruz is conceding he can't get the number and is only hoping to take Trump to the convention.

Do you guys really think you can win the General election with such actions?

I think he only needs 50% to get all of the delegates.

Of course Trump is none of those, but why deal with the truth when a lie will do.

We have heard from 17 potential right side of the isle hopefuls and everyone at this point knows what Trump and Curz represent. No one is pure or perfect for anyone; just pick the best one on YOUR ballot(s).

Polls change very quickly.

Trump will have no problem with Hillary.

What is going to sober you up is the next two weeks.

When Cruz wins on the second ballot I’ll have more than one glass of champagne.

It’s good to move things around after a loss.

To not do so would be incompetent.

Things are just fine. This is more BS.

By the way, Cruz must have had a shake up.

Stabby has been put in a closet and replaced with Snarly the GOPe Klown.

It isn't going to happen.

And if it did, the GOP would be finished, so Cruz would be left with a shattered Party.

Do you think Trump supporters are going to vote for him?
