In 1980, as soon as the New Hampshire Primary was over, Reagan summarily fired campaign manager John Sears. William Casey was named in his place (and went on to serve as DCI).
A true executive is not hesitant to make changes whenever and with whomever it may be necessary and to do so without regrets, but with full confidence.

Nice spin but Trump did not bother to assemble a good team.
He was hampered by his rule of never hiring anyone smarter than himself.
His little buddy, Corey, was excellent at protecting him from 100 pound women but not so good at strategy.

The Trump team is now busy with infighting and cannot possibly catch up to the Cruz people.
