" Donald Trump has cycled through a series of campaign leaders, each brought on to remedy the Republican nominees head-spinning presidential bid, but each turning into a headache himself. The latest campaign savior turned liability is former Breitbart News executive Stephen Bannon, who Trump named his campaign C.E.O. earlier this month. The campaign shake-up, which included the elevation of G.O.P. pollster Kellyanne Conway to campaign manager, was at the time seen as both a slight and solution to Paul Manafort, Trumps former campaign chairman, who was drawing unwanted attention over his controversial business ties to Russia and Ukraine.

(21,056 posts)are the 2 main things people see as huge choices from a presidential candidate to help determine if they're worth voting for - and he has failed miserably. I don't know how many campaign heads he's had, it feels like too many, and his VP nominee is one of the most anti-gay bigots in an elected position. This doesn't even include his own awful comments!
Sure are a lot of misguided people out there even if this trainwreck of a candidate was at 20%! It's sad he's at 40+.
