Trump campaign managers participation in 'landslide' profile might blow up their faces
Following a segment on journalist Tim Aberta's interview with Donald Trump's campaign managers where they boasted about the great job they are doing, MSNBC's Johnathan Lemire and Willie Geist suggested the former president has a history of viciously turning on aides who overshadow him.
In Alberta's "Trump is planning for a landslide win," for The Atlantic, campaign managers Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles brag about the outstanding job they have done getting the Trump campaign in a better position than it was in 2020 when he lost to President Joe Biden, going so far, as Alberta put it, to compare the two previous Trump campaigns as "clown shows."
At the end of the review of the Atlantic, Alberta summed it up with, "They went from feeling sort of confident about their ability to win big and they suddenly got pretty cocky about it and they started talking openly using words like landslide and blowout in some of our conversations."

"Those are words that political operatives usually do not use in public," Lemire replied before continuing, "Willie, we should also just note that maybe this time will be different, but in the past, Donald Trump has not reacted well when his aides, when his advisers suddenly get the spotlight — when they get the attention."
"It's not just Steve Bannon for out-shining him, he got angry at his own son-in-law, Jared Kushner when he started to get a lot of media attention. We'll have to see if there is blowback, here for Chris LaCivita and Susan Wiles" he added.
"That's right," a smirking Willie Geist offered. "He doesn't like profiles of other people on the cover of magazines other than himself."
