Donald Trump hires veteran GOP operative Rick Wiley
Washington Post ^ | April 13 at 3:50 PM | By Philip Rucker

Posted on 04/13/2016 1:24:55 PM PDT by dynoman

The Trump campaign said Wednesday that Rick Wiley — who has more than two decades of experience in state and national politics and most recently served as campaign manager for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s presidential bid — is joining the operation as national political director.

“Rick is a seasoned political expert with a very successful career in winning elections,” Trump said in a news release. “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.”

Wiley said in the same release, “Voters are frustrated with the political status quo in our country and are hungry for an outsider to shake up Washington. Donald Trump has energized millions of hard working people across the country with his no-nonsense straight talk and will bring his record of success to tackle the real problems that face our nation.”

there certainly hasn’t been anyone like Trump since Ronald Reagan. And Reagan was no Trump. Reagan was a gentleman, a class act, had manners and morals and used nothing but decent language. There has been nothing like Trump since King George III and even he probably had better manners. It is not hard.

LOL. I really do have to apologize. He did learn a bit about how the government runs when he bought politicians. The only reason the man is running is because if all his debts were called in by the collapsing banks he would need a job with housing and lifetime benefits. He’ll fit into the DC political culture just fine. No ripples just more back room deals with both sides of the isle. Just what makes America great, eh?

According to fans of Germanic pronunciation of Latin, didn’t he say (phonetically) Wayknee, Weedee, Weaky (probably with a limp wrist) rather than Vayknee, Veedee, Veechi, thereby embarrassing his more manly buddies into stabbing him to death on the Ides of March? It was not for nothing that he was called the husband of every woman and the wife of every man.

Next they murdered Cicero, tearing out his tongue, cutting off his hands, beheading him and nailing the tongue and hands to the wall of the Senate as a warning to others trying to save the Roman Republic. If Trump is going to play the role of The Donald Augustus, that means someone next must play syphilitic child molester Tiberius and then comes a Caligula equivalent. But that’s Ok, they will start the games and sacrifice Christians in the Circus Maximus.

A question well worth examining. How did a jackass like Wiley get hired by Walker for that matter? WHO recommended him to Walker?

“I think every Trump supporter should donate.”

Yup ...we have ...twice .. and we have been on the email list since the start, and he has never asked for money.

Manafort neglected to remind Hannity that he worked for Feckless Ford against Reagan before being allowed by his GOP-E handlers to work for Reagan. Then he reverted to type working for all the GOP-E types we love to hate. He is Karl Rove with a trimmer waistline. He even took a flyer on working for soviet stooges in Ukraine to reverse the Orange Revolution that freed Ukraine from the soviets’ successors. Paul J. Manafort: Want to find him? Follow the $$$$$$$ trail.

NO kidding I can’t believe people don’t get that about Cruz. He just tweeted about all his grassroots support - what a pathetic lie that is.

Typo or the actual spelling, it is still stupid, you trying to be "clever", which you aren't, and "I DRINK, THEREFORE I AM", has NOTHING whatsoever to do with Julius Caesar, his crossing the Rubicon, nor Trump...who has NEVER had anything alcoholic in his life.

How typical of a Cruz supporter...lying, going off topic, and then playing the "victim".

But God isn’t running for President. When he does, I’ll put my support behind him in that endeavor. Btw one can have faith and trust in things and people too. Folks do it all the time.

Trump is FINALLY hiring people that understand the election process. But now that he has hired GOPe insiders - his supporters will have to dump him. Many have said here repeatedly they will never vote for GOPe candidate. And Trump has become that.

You seem confused. Wiley is now Trumps insider, with Trump being his boss.

Ya seen what happens to folks when they don’t do what the boss says in Trumps world? It’s light years from D.C. “values” and ethics.

Whats not to like?

You're so full of BOVINE EXCREMENT, it's a wonder you don't chock on it!

You keep making up stupid stories and posting that drivel as fact.

You are so blinded by bias, it's a wonder you can manage not to walk into walls on your own!

Cruz is a liar and a stinking TRAITOR; but that's what you get backing an INELIGIBLE, NON-NBC, FAKE CHRISTIAN, and a complete FRAUD!

Oh good grief......Caesar wasn't assassinated for any reason other than some of the Senators were afraid of his popularity and they were afraid of losing THEIR power!

Revisionist history is one reason WHY this nation's kids and young adults are so F'in' STUPID!
