Ally of Trump staffer Paul Manafort: The staff is suicidal, he's mailing it in

Donald Trump's behavior in recent days - from criticizing the parents of a fallen American soldier to declining to endorse House Speaker Paul Ryan- has strained the nerves of his campaign staff as he falls behind in the polls.

I exchanged messages this evening with a longtime ally of Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, who I asked about who was calling the shots in the campaign. The response indicated that Manafort, a veteran of Republican politics brought in this spring for the transition from primaries to the general election, has lost control over his candidate.

"Manafort not challenging (Trump) anymore," Manafort's ally wrote. "Mailing it in. Staff suicidal."

After I tweeted those remarks, Trump campaign spokesman Jason Miller wrote to me, "The idea that Paul Manafort's mailing it in is completely erroneous. Our campaign just finished up our strongest month of fundraising to date, we're adding talented and experienced staffers on a daily basis, and Mr. Trump's turning out bigger, more enthusiastic crowds than Hillary Clinton ever could."

Nobody controls Trump, so Manafort (a guy who looks like a mafia consigliere) is likely relegated to having to clean up after the elephant takes his daily walks. 

How humiliating for a guy in his 60s to have to subjugate himself to an out-of-control demagogue.  He's earning every dime he makes, but at what cost to his conscience?

He deserves it. Manafart is a corrupt POS who would push his mom down the stairs for a nickle.

Sink, see this is where we differ, I post stories that aren't opinion, I look at both sides of the equation and I don't make up stories or headlines.

Good for you. I'm not objective.  I want Trump to be defeated.

Peachy.  In the future, how about omitting the links to TOS, and just going with the original story from CNBC, or whatever the original source is??

Just a suggestion.

From what I have read about Manafort, he may not have much of a conscience with his work for dictators and Putin boys. But, I may have wrong on that, will have to wait for further confirmation.

Good to see you, amigo!

A read through his Wikipedia entry is educational.
