Manafort just resigned.
- Thread starter Keyser76
- Start date
Can't wait to see what Steve Bannon plans to do. Trump has gone completely to the dark side.
I think everyone realizes Trump is not going to win, so they are moving on to the next best thing: money. Time to lay the foundation to later make money off all the stupid people that lap up all the nonsense Trump spouts. Make Cable News Great Again!
I knew it was going to happen soon. Manafort's close ties with Russians and the ousted Ukrainian leader were killing the legitimacy of Trumps campaign, especially in the light of the Russian attempts to influence the US presidential elections through covert means.
With the coming stationing of Russian troops in Iran being announced two days ago, Manafort went from being a liability to a potential disaster in waiting for the party as a whole. People in downticket Congressional races were planning on pounding Obama and the Democrats on Iran to in their campaigns. When the manager of your party's Presidential Candidate is Putin's man in Washington, he's got to go. You can't effectively bash the Democrats on Iran when Trump's manager is in bed with their biggest ally.
Trump was a fool for hiring the man in the first place. Doesn't he look into the background of who he's working with?
Is there any word on who the replacement is going to be? It's awfully late in the process to vet and hire a quality campaign manager. The good ones are busy with other candidates and campaigns.
It's ironic, I thought in the middle of this week that Trump was finally getting the hang of things, staying on point and not doing any wild ad libbing about whatever popped into his head. Now this. Maybe the fella should have stayed in Palm Beach?

Trump? You better believe it. Manafort is heading before Congress to explain his ties to Putin and his boy in Donetsk in a few days. It should be interesting.
You had a good point above. This post is laughable. This whole thread is clueless. The libs on this board are ridiculous.
Manafort is what he is. Look into his past. He's constantly climbed into bed with dictators of all stripes over the years to rehab their image and further their agendas.
Manafort would work with Satan if the money was right. He's a dirty guy.
He's going to have big fun before Congress explaining his Russian and Ukrainian ties. Pauly helped sanitize the image of those Russian soldiers invading Ukraine by promoting the idea they were "volunteers". I wonder where the cash he used to promote that little trick came from?

[laughing] Trump has a campaign manager that assaults a female reporter, he resigns, the next guy he hires has extensive ties to Russia, he resigns, and then he hires the top guy at Brietbart while trying to reach out to black voters. [laughing] Yes, us libs on this board are ridiculous. [laughing]
Not only are you ridiculous you in particular are dumb as a rock. Notice my lack of effiminite emojis.
Again, anyone criticizing Trump while planning to vote for Hillary is ridiculous.
This all sounds like a natural progression for a successful man getting into a new venture. Trump has not been wed to any of them. When the program bogs down, make a move for new guidance and keep on trucking. He does not have 30 years in this business, but he does have many years of business experience from which to call. His experience tells him it is time to make a change to reignite his campaign.
Hillary just about has Bill's old team back in place. We will see James Carville running with her before it is over. Lanny Davis has already come to rescue as has little fellow on ABC Sunday. Staff of lawyers still in tow. Should she survive, she will have the biggest staff of hangers on. Historic sized staff. Hell it is only government money.
