President Trump on Wednesday shook up his re-election team with less than four months until November’s vote, replacing his campaign manager, Brad Parscale, in an acknowledgment of the president’s diminished standing in nearly all public and private polling since the spring.
Mr. Parscale, who was named campaign manager unusually early, in February 2018, will step out of the job and Bill Stepien, currently the deputy campaign manager and a veteran political operative, will take over. Mr. Parscale will stay on with the campaign, becoming a senior adviser for data and digital operations.
The move comes as Mr. Trump’s advantages as an incumbent president have eroded in the face of a pandemic that has killed over 137,000 Americans and battered the nation’s economy — once Mr. Trump’s most powerful argument for re-election. The president has been heavily criticized for his handling of the coronavirus and the halting federal response to it, and Mr. Trump’s own public comments have deepened the hole in which he finds himself in national and battleground state polling.
Several new polls released Wednesday showed Mr. Trump trailing the presumptive Democratic nominee, Joseph R. Biden Jr., by double digits, and in one of them, 62 percent of respondents said they believed Mr. Trump was “hurting rather than helping” efforts to combat the pandemic.
“I am pleased to announce that Bill Stepien has been promoted to the role of Trump campaign manager,” Mr. Trump said in a statement. “Brad Parscale, who has been with me for a very long time and has led our tremendous digital and data strategies, will remain in that role, while being a senior adviser to the campaign. Both were heavily involved in our historic 2016 win, and I look forward to having a big and very important second win together.”
This is now widely recognized as Trump’s first response to bad news, pick a scapegoat, and then punish them.
I can almost guarantee that Parscale’s major sin was telling Trump some version of the truth and that this Stepien guy is only telling Trump what he wants to hear.
By the way, in case you were wondering, changing campaign managers four months before an election is never a sign that the campaign is doing well.
Plus Brad Parscale and Hope Hick have been having a thing and Donny doesn’t like Hopey’s attention anywhere but on him. lol
Exactly!
Trump demoted Parscale when he found he was dating Hope Hicks, same thing that happened with Lewandowski and Rob Porter. It wasn’t their sheer incompetence that got them canned, it was their virility, Trump was jealous. @realDonaldTrump

Trump ‘knows he’s losing’ – but can’t entirely fire Brad Parscale because ‘he knows too much’: report

Given trumps poor mental state, Hope hasn’t been doing a very good job of ” pants pressing”
Au contraire! Sounds like Hope Hicks enjoys boinking numerous men in the White House. Let’s see…she started with an obnoxious married man, Lewandowski, switched over to the billy-goat Parscale, and enjoyed the company of the wife-beater Rob Porter. And nobody wants to think about her on her knees pressing Trump’s pants.

Wowza!!!
WTF? What is wrong with parents who want to sacrifice their children in the altar of Trump???
Parents and members of the public had gathered Wednesday to discuss their objections to a mask policy requiring children to wear face masks
Around 100 packed into the Provo meeting room without masks
Gov. Gary Herbert announced last week that all students in K-12 schools and on school buses must now wear masks
Some parents have claimed masks will ‘rewire children’s brains’ and ‘teach them to fear the world’, and threatened to pull their kids out of school
Cases in Utah are surging, topping 30,891 cases and 233 deaths

What I find disgusting is how Trumps barbie doll spokes person lies with a smirk on her face each time she goes before the press. What an unworthy job. Lying for a liar. So basically our tin pot dctator must only hear lies whispered into his ears. No truths. We all see the truth but these right wingers have taken leave of their senses sand want to force their narratives. As if that would make it truth. Li,e forcing a jigsaw puzzle piece that obviously does not fit.
Demote=trump talk for your “FIRED” ..
brad probable doesn’t care, he managed to enrich himself at the expense of the campaign and now he can run with the cars, homes and who knows what else.
Little donnie can’t complain because that would be one moocher calling out another.

Can we have a discussion about this guy K.W. Miller, who is running for a seat in the U.S. House to represent Florida’s 18th Congressional District? Can we talk about how this man’s toxic Twitter feed rivals that of Donald “Give Me Goya or Give Me Death” Trump in terms of baseless conspiracy theories and general trolling?
A recent tweet posted by K.W. Miller On Wednesday, Kill Whitey Miller tweeted, “Most white women join Black Lives Matter to fornicate with black men.”
Meanwhile Biden wanders aimlessly around his basement looking for his wallet and car keys that were taken away years ago.
Gosh can’t you trolls get a little more creative? We don’t have to because trump does all the work for us in real time LOL
Lifes A Tripp reruns is the reset we all need.
