Trump campaign official arrives at Oregon standoff to support militants

Jerry DeLemus, a Trump campaign official and the husband of New Hampshire state Rep. Susan DeLemus, has arrived in Burns, Oregon — where some of his associates have taken over a visitors center at Malheur National Wildlife Reserve.

DeLemus met many of the participants, including ringleader Ammon Bundy, when he traveled cross-country to take part in the armed standoff with federal agents at the Bundy ranch in Nevada, and social media posts show he has maintained ties to the militants who took over the federal building.

In the meantime, DeLemus has taken an official role with Trump’s campaign, taken part in CNN focus groups about the candidate and organized the infamous rally where Trump failed to correct a man who called President Barack Obama a Muslim.

Trump or one of his lackeys was going to get involved? I am only surprised it took this long.

and his wife is an elected official in NH along with the timing... a certain candidate needs an "issue" to resolve so he can look like he's got the chops with his BStalk. I suspect some $$ has floated to the ringleader family by a certain candidate... I suspect that their is more under the surface with this new info exposes.

yapping dogs would pull this stunt. The so called free press and media can raise their ad rates. Meanwhile China is in full collapse and wiping out your 401k's and Ira's. These Guys are not going any where soon. And if there is this obstructed travel in and out,it becomes just a media stunt.
