A former senior aide to a pro-Donald Trump Super PAC disavowed the Republican frontrunner in an exclusive interview on Wednesday, citing what she sees as his rambling, divisive style on the campaign trail.

Cegielski said she initially saw Trump as a positive political force, but that his statements and policy positions, or lack thereof, convinced her that he is unfit to be commander in chief.

When I was with the Super PAC I had hope that he would could [sic] bring a fresh perspective to the political process, she said. Instead, he has brought disruption and an overinflated ego.

I only started [opposing his candidacy] in the last few months, well after the Super PAC shutting down, she said. I still supported him for a time after the PAC but then came to my senses.
Asked whether any of Trumps specific statements or policy positions pushed her over the edge, Cegielski suggested that her concerns were more broad.
As a communications person I am a strong advocate for sticking to your message, she said. The problem with his message is that it is all about his poll numbers, the losers of the world and his ability to do everything great.
Cegielskis distress at Trumps seemingly inexorable political rise is evident. She has faulted Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus, ineffectual anti-Trump political groups, and a Trump-obsessed news media for his continued political success.

Uh huh....wonder what the real story is.
Yawn.
He has brought AMERICANISM back to America. We don’t need all these blood sucker political “types’ messing up America. GO
TRUMP!
Now that she doesn’t have a job working on his behalf, she opposes him.
I suspect this is part of auditioning for another job.
That is neither defense of or admonition of any candidate - it is recognition of the objective situation.
Yes. Her concerns “are more broad”. Like more opportunistic concerns? Like promises if betrays?
Keyword “former”
Trump didn’t want PACs anyhow.
...she got her collar yanked by the GOPe
She sounds like a “small cat”. We need tigresses.
So Trump disavowed all PACs. The one that was paying her $72k for 4 months work, promptly shut down. And now she’s mad at Trump.

Interesting that she was a leader of the pro-Trump Super PAC, which disbanded ... THEN she turned anti-Trump. Sounds more like a psychological reaction to perceived betrayal: wanted Trump to need her (via the SPAC), wasn’t needed, lost her position for lack of need, now hates him because he doesn’t need her.

Yep, an incredible story.
I wonder how much the payoff was from Cruz/GOPe/Cruz-PACs for her to tell these “conveniently sudden” lies...
“Uh huh....wonder what the real story is.”
If you wanted to ‘control’ an election, what ‘things’ would you do? One thing to do, without a doubt, would be to plant ‘operatives’ into the opposition camps. This would do two things. First, it might give you inside information, dependent upon how high up the hierarchy you could get your operatives. Second, it would give you the opportunity to have them ‘leave the campaign after being disillusioned’. You know this happens. Anything that can be conceived of will have been put into place. This is always the case when the stakes are high.
The real story is that Trump demanded that all PACs that sought to operate in his name or on his behalf were to be SHUT DOWN.
She got canned, is the real story.
She must be a loser.

Doesn’t seem like she was working for him, rather a pac that was supporting him.
Camille Paglia supports Bernie but would be happy with Trump.
I’m still a big supporter of our Constitution and therefore couldn’t support either.
