FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — President Donald Trump’s former campaign manager Brad Parscale was hospitalized Sunday after he threatened to harm himself, according to Florida police and campaign officials.

Police officers talked Parscale out of his Fort Lauderdale home after his wife called police to say that he had multiple firearms and was threatening to hurt himself.

Police Sgt. DeAnna Greenlaw said Parscale was hospitalized under the state’s Baker Act, which allows anyone deemed to be a threat to themselves or others to be detained for 72 hours for psychiatric evaluation.

“Brad Parscale is a member of our family and we love him,” said Trump campaign communications director Tim Murtaugh. “We are ready to support him and his family in any way possible.”

I was just checking for local traffic and this article caught my attention. Dear Lord - be with Brad. Don't know if/how much they twisted the truth but either way - this unfortunately will be jumped on.

Prayers for Brad and his family

How convenient that a normal guy suddenly goes ape-sh!t the day James O’Keefe releases huge proof of election fraud. What topic is getting more press now?

Perhaps Mr. Parscale should have hired a food taster a few weeks ago.

Very sad, and I pray that he gets the help he needs.

That being said, if a Biden staffer did this the story would never see the light of day.

It may not be depression. It could be a host of other problems (including prescription drugs and alcohol).

Something as simple as Benadryl with a moderate amount of alcohol might be the problem. Different people react differently.

News broke last night. Many prayers lifted up for him and his family. Amen to all of your prayers.

Keep him away from politics. Too much food for the left. Van Gogh’s ear surgery didn’t prevent him from doing great work but he was just a starving artist-nobody cared. This is different.

It could be that he’s upset he was downgraded after Oklahoma.

***********

No evidence released by O’Keefe is ever covered by the corrupt media. He could expose the scandal of the century and it would be largely ignored.

“Have not heard anything on TV re O’Keefe report”

We won’t. His video was being advertised on OAN, so maybe them, but probably nobody else.

He was a pretty free-spending guy, and I would guess the finances on is consulting group were a mess.

Brad BLEW through 800 million dollars out of 1B for President’s campaign election. He was demoted and replaced by someone who has put in tighter controls. Sorry to hear about Brad, but I believe his downfall was he got greedy, cost him his job, his reputation, etc.

Oh no! I saw Brad speak at the Trump rally in Minneapolis last October. He was so inspiring and full of charisma. This is so sad. Prayers for him and his family. I know what it’s like to deal with a situation like this. There are no easy answers.

I think his org was paying Guilfoyle and the Trump boys. Wonder what is going to happen to that stream.
