A top adviser to Donald Trump resigned Monday after sending a mocking tweet about just-fired campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, a campaign source tells CNN.
Michael Caputo, a Trump adviser and head of the communications for Trump's caucus operations team, tweeted "Ding Dong the witch is dead" following the news that Lewandowski had been fired.

Caputo...he’s caput
Not surprised
Trump don’t suffer fools gladly
Lewandowski was going to get set up with a hit piece in October i bet, so part of the reason of Trump outing him on a safe timeframe, cleared of the Fields scam & well before the general.
Trump might bring him back after a while, but it’s good to see Corey gone and Manafort (Ivanka, Jared) in charge of the campaign.
Pray God, let’s start using prepared speeches and an occasional teleprompter.
He’s got to prepare for the debates this fall with Hillary, and now he’s got a good team on board.
Trump and Lewindowski have had nothing but good things to say about each other in their various public appearances since Lewindowski was no longer part of the campaign. This was an excellent move on Trump’s part to fire Caputo.
This is looking messy.
Get the mess out of the way now. Folks have a tendency to forget things rather quickly these days.
No Cruz did not "get away with it." He is toast, his career is toast, and we despise him for the corrupt little cheater that he is.
The problem is that there are Trump delegates who lied to get on his roster, and fully intended to vote for Cruz. Can they be sued for breach of contract if they don’t stay home and let an alternate take their place?
There goes one of my best connections to the campaign.
When will people learn? Part of being on Trump’s team is realizing that every move will be under public scrutiny and attributed to the campaign. There’s no room for idiocy such as that post.
During the first ballot, delegates aren’t polled individually. A rep from each state reads out the totals awarded by that state’s rules. There’s no opportunity for disloyal votes on the first ballot.
That’s why the attention is focused on approving rules and credentials, where delegate votes aren’t bound.
I’m leaving out some details, but that’s the main idea.
What the traitors are trying to do is change that “first ballot” rule. Instead of Ryan and others embracing this, anyone involved should be kicked out of the Republican Party.
They can try all they want, but state party rules apply, and state parties aren’t about to give up their little remaining power.
In any case, rule changes have to be approved by the convention as a whole. Anyone who thinks such a coup would pass that hurdle has no personal knowledge of the process.
What’s going on is the NeverTrump crowd trying to provoke Trump and followers into doing something so stupid that a majority of delegates would feel they had no choice except dumping Trump.
Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Convention: DON’T PANIC!
Oh I agree....and Caputo took his medicine gracefully.
I know his actions around that reporter set in motion a sequence of events that has exposed talk show loser Ben Shapiro as a fraud and liar as well as push Mark Levin over the unhinged line.
Thank you Corey
Trump is trying to put together a staff that understands the basic rules of appropriate behavior for an employee. Anyone who ever watched Apprentice knows that Trump demands total loyalty and professionalism.
For Trump and his family, it must be like living on an alien planet with next to no intelligent life dwelling there. I have total confidence that Trump will piece together a staff that meets his standards, but, my gosh, you'd think there'd be a better learning curve for those working on Trump's campaign.
JMHO
at least you didn’t lose anything of value
Geez, what the hell was he thinking?
yes, it is
