"Palace Intrigue" Threatens Trump's Campaign

 

A potential power struggle within the Malignant Loser's flailing campaign is causing nervousness among the cult leader's staff, the Guardian reports:

"Donald Trump’s campaign remains jittery about the prospect of a power struggle inside the inner circle that could become a major distraction just months until the 2024 election, even if​ the jockeying for influence by top officials has ended with a truce, according to people familiar with the matter.

The momentary power play among the senior advisers is widely seen to be over, for now, after the 2016 campaign chief, Corey Lewandowski, distanced himself from suggestions he was returning to the fold to run the campaign and the current leadership remained in their roles. (Lewandowski was brought on the current campaign as an adviser.)" (our emphasis)

Lewandowski is a piece of work, even in among his despicable colleagues in the campaign. He was fired from a Malignant Loser- aligned PAC for making sexual advances to a donor's wife, and was charged with battery after an incident in 2016 when he grabbed a female reporter. His hiring is seen as an act of desperation by the Malignant Loser as he copes unsuccessfully with a surging V.P. Harris. More:

"The jitters have calmed down for now because no one expects Lewandowski or anyone else to become the head of the Trump campaign, after the other senior advisers in effect revolted at the idea of Lewandowski taking over and privately complained to Trump, the people said.

The morning that Trump formally decided to add Lewandowski to the campaign leadership, Trump told his team to 'find something for Corey to do', according to two people in the room.

​And when word reached the other senior advisers that there had been chatter about Lewandowski​ supposedly coming in to run the campaign, Trump re-expressed faith in Wiles and LaCivita in private and in public at a press conference at his Bedminster club in New Jersey." (our emphasis)

Remember that the Malignant Loser has always thrived in chaos around him, watching others vie for his approval and rewards, and this is no exception. The fact that he had no idea what to do with Lewandowski speaks to the Malignant Loser's utter lack of management and organization skills, as well as his desperation.
