Trump is his own worse emeny. The rest of the week was suppose to talk about his new ads, and his pivot 5.0.

Now they will be gossiping like chatty cathys about Manafort.

Yep, now Trump's ad will take the back burner as the news discusses the horrible history of Manafort's dirty dealing with Russia. Just perfect.

Trump wants EXTREME vetting of immigrants but cannot even properly vet his own closest advisor. Pitiful.

Great job, New York Times.
 
The seditionist is gone, and with him anyone on the staff who would even bother with vain attempts to polish that turd into an even remotely presidential candidate. Splendid.
 
Has a campaign manager ever been axed this close to the election before? I mean, we're around 80 days to go here. That's not much time for someone to get this operation under control.
 
I don't know who in the hell would want to replace him at this point. Everyone can see the writing on the wall for Trump's campaign.

Trump has deep Russia ties himself, so Manafort's connection to Ukraine and by extension Russia probably wasn't an issue to him. I imagine he was thinking that Manfort's history wouldn't be uncovered so it wouldn't matter.

He's been through two of them so far, and now Bannon is his de facto third. This is unprecedented.
 
Why? What crime did he commit?

Funneled foreign money into American lobbying efforts without registering as a foreign agent, which I believe is punishable by five years. That would be the clear cut crime. He also organized riots against NATO in Ukraine, which is probably worse but maybe harder to prosecute.
 
I bet either that Bannon guy or Roger Ailes ends up being campaign manager before the end. Mark it down.

For sure, both are vile in the way Trump and his base would love

that really doesn't matter, she speaks trump's language and he likes her so unless there's a skeleton in her closet that ends up making him look bad she's fine

I think it will come down to trump not liking taking orders from a woman
 
Considering he was had just given up and was saying yes to whatever Trump was saying, this is a good move for the campaign. Won't help in the long run.
