Ousted campaign manager had unlikely path to Trump Tower

I think it might be The Donald being bent. He's hard-headed enough that he won't completely cave, but not too much that he's completely unaccepting of advice and guidance.

PO2 (Join to see) It boils down to voter turn out. If Trump cannot contrast himself to Hillary enough to turn out voters, or if he leaves voters feeling he does not represent the party well, they are less likely to vote. That will give the election to swillary. So at this point he needs people who can run a campaign that has a chance to win. If he is not willing to do that, then he cannot win. He does not have the skills necessary to win an election on his own. He is smart enough to read poll numbers. He is smart enough to do the math on where he actually stands. Now he just needs to surround himself with people that can help him win.

Remains to be seen. Too many nuances and he will lose voters, too many crude or not well thought out comments and he will drop voters. Bottom line, he sticks to his winning issues and becomes a politician in his delivery. Otherwise, prepare for a third term for Obama in the person of Hillary.
