Donald Trump’s former North Carolina campaign manager, accused of pulling gun on three staffers, quickly resigns from new post

A former Donald Trump campaign manager once terrorized a staffer by jabbing a loaded gun into his knee — and team Trump refused to step in and help the harassed employee, according to a new lawsuit.

Vincent Bordini — once an avid Trump supporter who worked for three months on the campaign as a software trainer — filed a lawsuit Wednesday against North Carolina campaign director Earl Phillip and the Trump presidential campaign for the alleged February incident.

Bordini said he decided to file the lawsuit after the campaign failed to act on the matter.

"I just wanted the campaign to care," he told the Daily News Thursday.

Phillip — who left his post in North Carolina last week to become the deputy chair of Trump's National Diversity Coalition — stepped down from his new job Thursday, Charlotte-based station WCCB reported. He also did not attend the Republican National Convention last month.
