[quote]Donald Trump's campaign said Saturday it has fired top political adviser Roger Stone -- who promptly denied being let go and insisted he had quit. [B]Stone's disassociation from the Trump operation Saturday highlights the campaign's seeming lack of veteran political advisers, even as the 2016 season is ramping up in earnest. And the dispute opens a window into two different factions of the campaign: one side that wants to maintain Trump's high visibility by capitalizing on his public feuds and bombastic rhetoric, and another that wants to pull the candidate toward more disciplined political strategy.[/B] The episode caps a tumultuous few weeks for Trump's presidential campaign, which recently cut ties with two men accused of writing inflammatory Facebook posts. Trump, who is currently leading national polls, delivered an explosive performance at the first GOP debate in Cleveland Thursday, and went on to make inflammatory comments about Fox News host Megyn Kelly in an interview on CNN Friday night. [B]"Mr. Trump fired Roger Stone last night. We have a tremendously successful campaign and Roger wanted to use the campaign for his own personal publicity.[/B] He has had a number of articles about him recently and Mr. Trump wants to keep the focus of the campaign on how to Make America Great Again," a campaign spokesperson told CNN. [B]Stone, however, told CNN that he "categorically denies" being fired, and provided what he said was his resignation letter.[/B] "Unfortunately, the current controversies involving personalities and provocative media fights have reached such a high volume that it has distracted attention from your platform and overwhelmed your core message. With this current direction of the candidacy, I no longer can remain involved in your campaign," the letter to Trump says. Stone added: "I care about you as a friend and wish you well. Be assured I will continue to be vocal and active in the national debate to ensure our nation does not again turn to the failed and distrusted Bush/Clinton families." Trump's campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, said the team never saw Stone's letter. For his part, Stone tweeted Saturday afternoon that he "fired Trump."[/quote] [url]http://www.cnn.com/2015/08/08/politics/donald-trump-campaign-roger-stone/index.html[/url]

The Trump spiel just gets crazier by the day.
So trump and his associates acting like literal schoolchildren.. Nothing new, right? [editline]9th August 2015[/editline] At this point i wouldn't want him in office just because I cringe at the shit he would say to the other leaders of the world :v: he would probably be the most stereotypical American we've ever had for president hahaha
He's literally just become a parody of himself by this point.
Really, how can anyone take him seriously anymore, even before he got into politics.
Can you really fired a person who quits? I just question this logic?

[t]http://cdn.history.com/sites/2/2013/12/teddy-moose.jpg[/t] On-topic, this is an optimistic sign that his campaign is deteriorating from the inside now too. He's finally starting to see the inevitable consequences of his actions. Well, not really actions, rather criticism of others' actions.
