Breaking…Trump for President campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, back in charge, sacks Paul Manafort’s key power struggle allay Rick Wiley, who ran a disastrous Scott Walker for President campaign, blowing through $150 million and not making it past the second debate in Simi Valley, CA.
Wiley’s forced departure is significant, as he was serving primarily as newly installed Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort’s henchman. Several long time Trump campaign loyalists said Manafort’s overwhelming focus was on consolidating power and elbowing out Lewandowski.
Campaign insiders said Wiley, directed by longtime lobbyist insider Manafort, was primarily focused on digging up dirt on Lewandowski, on Trump’s dime, and was not responsive to the field operation.
