FoxNews6 ^ | 04/13/2016 | CNN newswire

The former campaign manager to Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s presidential bid has joined Donald Trump’s White House campaign.

Rick Wiley, a GOP strategist with deep ties to the Republican Party, is joining the campaign as its national political director, deepening its bench of veteran GOP operatives with national political experience.

“Rick is a seasoned political expert with a very successful career in winning elections,” Trump said in a statement. “He brings decades of experience, and his deep ties to political leaders and activists across the country will be a tremendous asset as we enter the final phase of securing the nomination.”

------------------------------

He previously served as the Republican National Committee’s national political director and worked as a consultant for the Republican Governors Association and National Republican Senatorial Committee.

In before the former Walker fans, who became Cruz fans, (you know who you are) call Walker’s former manager a liberal.

And if it was Cruz you’d say how awesome and savvy his campaign is and call Trump a loser... even though he’s schlonging Cruz.

Could Mr. Wiley be a Trojan horse?

So now he’s hiring all these strategists and lobbyists with deep ties to the Republican party. He’s not going establishment on us over here is he?

In before all the Trump fans who complained about him then (and there were several here) check in to say what a brilliant 4D chess move this is.

Hmmm... First Manafort, and now Wiley. Does this now make Trump “establishment”, since all we hear is that Cruz is “establishment” because of who’s supporting him.

It's not Wiley's fault that Walker couldn't shake the money tree.

That said, I wonder how many big money GOP string pullers today wished that they had made it rain last year for the Wisconsin Governor?

That was entirely Walker's own doing. Riley had nothing to do with it. Walker's head got too big when he won the recall, and he didn't anticipate Trump stealing his mojo.

Umm, they gotta have worked for some party - and helped candidates win - or they would not be worth (experience and track record) hiring. Would you be happier he hire Dem strategists?
