Trump shakes up campaign leadership, demotes Parscale
The Hill ^ | July 15 2020 | BY BRETT SAMUELS

Bill Stepien will replace Brad Parscale as manager of the Trump campaign, the president announced Wednesday night, shaking up the leadership of his stalled reelection bid.

Parscale will stay on in his role leading the campaign's digital strategy and will serve as a senior adviser, Trump said. Parscale was the digital guru of the president's insurgent 2016 White House bid, but had not worked as a campaign manager prior to taking that role ahead of the 2020 race.

Whoever has been putting them out is extremely tone deaf if they think messages like, “Your access will be CUT OFF!” work.

OMG, I'm getting flooded with those emails and (worst of all) TEXTS. I've had to reply STOP so many times to put an end to the *constant* Donate to Trump texts. It makes me not want to give the campaign anymore $$$!

I do blame him for hyping the numbers. Hyping leads to hubris.

I agree, however I *am* glad that Parscale is still going to be doing what he is best at: Crunching the data, etc.

President Trump and the entire Trump family marveled at "genius" Brad Parscale and gave him a lot of credit for Trump's 2016 win. Glad he wasn't fired.

And the day Quinnipiac comes out with a horrible poll for Trump

I live in Connecticut, home of Quinnipiac University. I've been polled by Quinnipiac many times (land-line telephone), for national and local elections. They ask VERY leading questions, where the average person (not me, lol) would feel guilty supporting any Republican candidate or conservative position.

Rasmussen polls, however, are fantastic in my experience. No live person is at the other end. You press 1 for "Candidate A", 2 for "Candidate B". Press 1 for "Yes", press 2 for "No", etc.

No guilt, no feeling weird about what candidate or position you support.

That being said, it's been over 5 or so years since I've been polled on the old-fashioned land-line telephone by Quinnipiac or Rasmussen. Not sure if that's how they still do their polls.

Those nasty txts were a complete turn off and I finally had to delete the app. I was so disappointed. That was quite juvenile.

Campaign manager and Digital manager is too much work for one person. Parscale is a genius at digital campaigning.

Great points!

Gorka told Lou tonight that he was in the Oval today and Law & Order is the campaign message going forward.

Is Lou Dobbs' show where Sebastian Gorka has been hanging out these days? I never ever see him on Hannity, Laura or Tucker's shows anymore. (I know Gorka has his own radio show)

I agree with you.

I’m a little upset about the demotion.

I was told probably a month ago by a friend of a friend who knew someone on the Trump team that Brad Parscale was going to be replaced because he had limited experience in running a campaign.

I am sure Trump had this change in mind long before the phony poll came out.

Maybe Trump didn’t think the guy was in the right post, not complicated.

Well, you couldn’t tell Chis was much different then a Democrat. Republicans have won the State before. We have a ‘Republican’ Gov. in Mass. for what it is worth.

Christie has too much political baggage, he would be a disaster.

“The Hill”, seriously?

That’s like reading MAD MAGAZINE for your daily news, but I do have to say; MAD MAGAZINE has better stories and more accurate reporting than THE HILL!
