Lewandowski Axed From Trump Team

ABC-

Donald Trump has fired his campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, according to two senior aides within the Trump campaign.

News of Lewandowski’s departure was first reported by The New York Times.

“The campaign is grateful to Corey for his hard work and dedication and we wish him the best in the future,” according to a statement from Trump’s spokesperson Hope Hicks.

A senior Trump aide told ABC News that Lewandowski’s firing “was a long time coming” and that the campaign “need[ed] to get everyone on the same page.”

Aides have grown frustrated with the lack of teamwork between Lewandowski and campaign chairman Paul Manafort, who was hired after Lewandowski. The campaign is expected to make other changes including new staff hires in the coming days. Aides also said Trump has “complete confidence” in Manafort.

Lewandowski was fired during a meeting this morning at Trump Tower with the candidate and campaign leadership.

  1. Probably cut him loose to firewall Trump from Michelle Field’s lawsuit against Lewandowski. The suit is total crap, but just the kind of distraction the MSM needs to help Hillary.

  2. How can Trump get elected in this political climate without help from mainstream, moderate Republicans and Independents? He has to get his political act together. Time and money are running out. Clinton might lose if the Russians release her missing emails and they implicate her in the Clinton Foundations illegalities and Bengazi coverup. But anyone with a functioning brain knows she’s guilty as hell already, so what will it take to get Trump elected? Maybe three or four more Islamic terrorists attacks. If they happen, Trump has to handle them better than the Orlando massacre.

  3. marco, the stars are aligning for trump, for the moment

    hillary is tepid and boring to the left, and many many bernie voters will not be interested checking the box for hillary

    in the meantime, trump’s response to orlando was brilliant and a poignant opportunity to bond some of the lgbt vote

    the blacks are worse off under obama and many are wising up, and the good hispanics of this land are victims of the same terrible result of an open southern border

    i don’t believe it when i hear that hillary has an automatic advantage

    trump’s opportunity at this point is great, and i believe he is playing a smart enough game at them moment to not fuck it up

  4. I hope you are right, but America-Africans will never leave the Democrat Plantation, and Mexicans and Latinos are not going to vote in large numbers for Trump. This leaves disaffected blue collar Democrats and women who are finally realizing that the economy is destroying their families’ future. Trump can’t afford to alienate any more of them. He is running just like he did during the primaries, and it’s way past time for him to start expanding is appeal.

  5. Trump doesn’t have to get all the blacks nor all the Mexican nor all the gay nor all the women. Just more than normal.
