Corey Lewandowski is out. Note he was "contentious". Nothing but the facts, ma'am, nothing but the facts.
ZitatDonald J. Trump has fired his contentious campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, a move that comes as the presumptive Republican nominee faces challenges as he heads into the general election.
Mr. Lewandowski could not immediately be reached for comment about his departure, which was announced by the campaign.
“The Donald J. Trump Campaign for President, which has set a historic record in the Republican primary having received almost 14 million votes, has today announced that Corey Lewandowski will no longer be working with the campaign,” the campaign spokeswoman, Hope Hicks, said in a statement. “The campaign is grateful to Corey for his hard work and dedication and we wish him the best in the future.”

ZitatThe campaign manager was seen as having a hostile relationship with many members of the national press corps who cover Mr. Trump, and many officials at the Republican National Committee had strained relationships with him.
And Mr. Lewandowski was often at odds with Mr. Trump’s chief strategist, Paul Manafort, who was brought on in March when the candidate seemed poised for a lengthy fight over delegates.
Mr. Lewandowski was said to have resisted certain moves that would have increased the number of staff members, at times blocking Mr. Manafort from making hires or later undoing them.
But the people briefed on Mr. Lewandowski’s departure said that the circumstances went well beyond any particular episode or any particular relationship. Mr. Lewandowski had a penchant for making headlines about himself that overshadowed his boss, including being charged with misdemeanor battery, a charge later dropped, after he was accused of grabbing a reporter as she approached Mr. Trump with a question in Jupiter, Fla., on March 8, a night when the candidate won three of four Republican state primary votes.
One person stressed that the move had been in the works for many weeks, particularly since it became clear that Mr. Trump would be the nominee. The person added said that the campaign is now focusing on bringing the party together, including hiring new staff members and adjusting to the race against Hillary Clinton. And there had been a desire for many weeks to make changes ahead of the Republican National Convention, July 18-21 in Cleveland.

The pivot begins.
This is the latest in Trump can never get the nomination or win the election. I have heard a few dozen negative reasons about Lewansky and why he left the campaign. Few noted that during the primaries Trump got the highest number of R votes ever.
The fact there is no rancor against Trump makes me wonder if Lewansky's skills were very important to the primaries, but may not be as useful during the actual election.
Tagged onto this information the MSM has been pronuncing Trump's campaign broke comparing Turmp's 1 mill to Hitlary's 41 mill. Forgotten is how much more efficiently Trump has spent his money, i.e. how much less per vote he has spent. and howse 41 million has bought Hilary's soul

During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.

Yeah to hear the news Trump's campaign is stalling. First Corey is fired and then Trump can't seem to raise any money --- when compared to Hillary. This is a campaign of half-truths. Let the public beware. Imagine Donald Trump short on money? Half truth, maybe only one quarter true.
