Trump Threatened to Sue His Own Campaign Manager

“As he huddled with advisers on Friday evening, President Trump was still fuming over his sliding poll numbers and the onslaught of criticism he was facing for suggesting a day earlier that ingesting disinfectant might prove effective against coronavirus,” CNN reports.

“Within moments, the President was shouting — not at the aides in the room, but into the phone — at his campaign manager Brad Parscale… Shifting the blame away from himself, Trump berated Parscale for a recent spate of damaging poll numbers, even at one point threatening to sue Parscale.”

Said one Republican close to the White House: “He’s pissed because he knows he messed up in those briefings.”
