“Paul Manafort, the longtime Republican strategist and chairman of Trump’s 2016 campaign, who had assumed unpaid role advising party officials on the nominating convention, has stepped aside.
Manafort’s move came after NYT reported that he had been on the ground in Milwaukee last week for planning meetings for the convention, as well as a Washington Post story that said he was involved in work connected to foreign officials and businesses.”
@GottaLaff "unpaid" my arse! When there is so much political, strategic, and capitalist advantage for so many in the undoing of US democracy, it defies credulity that a leader in the field would give away his expertise for free.
Just because we don't see the money doesn't mean it isn't there.
@GottaLaff Good riddance!
I hope that someone continues to keep a close eye on this guy. It's my understanding that a lot of his work, if not most of it, has been done under the radar. He's been a presence in GOP politics for 50 years. Doubt he will quit now.
