My role has not changed Morris: The unstoppable Trump Moulitsas: Time for a better primary MORE’s campaign manager Corey Lewandowski brushed off reports that he’s being sidelined by the addition of high-profile new hires that are well connected within the Republican world.

Trump’s national field director Stuart Jolly resigned on Monday – an amicable parting according to Jolly.
Embattled Donald Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski has reportedly been demoted amid a shakeup in the GOP front-runner’s team.
The Fox News Sunday segment titled “Can the Trump campaign move past distractions?” proved once again that the answer is no. When asked about the decision by prosecutors not to charge him, Lewandowski did what every other politico on television does: He pivoted to what he actually wanted to talk about. Trump has brought in a group of aides with decades of national political experience, including Paul Manafort, a longtime strategist who was recently brought on to oversee Trump’s delegate and convention strategy. “These guys write stories – it’s not necessarily a bad story – but they write stories, they have no facts, they never even call and I hear they’re going out of business”. “I would obviously have less input”. As far as Donald Trump is concerned, it doesn’t look like he’s burned any bridges just yet, as long as the staffing changes pay off in the long run.
Shouldn’t the Trump campaign simply let Donald be Donald? While Lewandowski is doing his media victory lap, Trump’s campaign – which he was/is in charge of running – is on the verge of losing the nomination because Trump had zero delegate strategy.
Jacobus also claims that Lewandowski boasted about Trump’s friendships with Ailes, Fox News host Bill O’Reilly and MSNBC host Joe Scarborough. “I would rather go out on top than, you know, go after a loss or something. The accurate statement is I recommend a slate of 15 at large delegates”, Blaise Ingoglie said.
Trump has also formalized lines of communication which will make the campaign more nimble when responding to trouble. “What this shows is that the American political system is unbelievably corrupt and that we do have an oligarchy in the United States”. But the win comes amid a serious campaign restructuring that has led to confusion about chains of command and less influential roles for Trump’s previously insular inner circle.
“At no point did Jacobus “beg” the Trump campaign for a job, or even affirmatively apply for a position with the Trump campaign, nor was she turned down for a position”, the lawsuit states.

The Texas senator – who worked on former President George W. Bush’s team during the Florida recount in the disputed 2000 presidential election – has also outmaneuvered the celebrity billionaire at conventions in states that skip the primary process altogether, sweeping up almost all the available delegates in Colorado and North Dakota.
