The digital director of the Trump campaign said Friday that the president's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and son Eric Trump "were joint deputy campaign managers" whose "approval" was required for every decision before the 2016 election.

"Nobody else. Not one person made a decision without their approval," the digital director, Brad Parscale, tweeted. "Others just took credit for this family's amazing ability. I'm done with all these lies. They will be embarrassed!"

Kushner was Parscale's "patron," according to a person familiar with the campaign's inner workings, which could explain their closeness.

Kushner got Parscale hired, the person said, "despite the fact that a number of people in the campaign wondered whether he had any idea what he was doing."

1. Sometimes I see the phrase 'president's son-in-law Jared Kushner' & it still seems like a bad dream

I honestly can't believe at times that the country rejected a supremely qualified and talented candidate in favor of this circus sideshow we have.

I thought that in 2000 too, but at least a few of the people in that government were loosely qualified.

2. She did get more votes, and we don't know how many votes Putin hacked for Trump.

9. The country didn't 'reject' Hillary, an antiquated system let 45* slip through the cracks

Not to mention the obvious interference in our election by Russia, the Comey memos, and of course questionable vote counting technology that's wide open to hacking.

13. Yes, all that's true, but....

he still got a disturbingly large number of votes. She should have had a massive landslide.

17. Oh, no no no...

A lot of people in the Bush II administration were very qualified. They were also very evil, but there's no question that the Bush II administration knew the limits of evil. Trump's gang of thieves, OTOH, is over-the-top evil.

3. He doesnt seem to grasp the implications of what he just said.

Which is fine by me, but damn these people just cannot keep their mouths shut.

4. IOW it is CYA time

Pascale knows a lot of what he did was wrong and might be criminal so he
is now saying, it was Jared and Eric Trump's who gave the orders.


The Nuremberg Defense* refers to a legal strategy employed by many of the defendants at the Nuremberg war crimes trials seeking to convict Nazi perpetrators of war crimes and crimes against humanity committed during the Second World War. Many of those defendants claimed that they were not guilty of the charges against them as they were "only following orders."

5. I'm done with all these lies.

[SayItLoud]

6. He's confirming

That whatever illegal activities happened, especially with regard to digital these two can not deny that they were part of the activity. Along with Dan Scavino who will get hung out to dry shortly.

16. This

7. Didn't Parscale claim he was more-or-less a nobody

when he testified to whichever congressional committee? But now he knows all the inside info anyone could ever want to know.

Or I am remembering incorrectly?

8. Several months ago

Someone posted here, 'keep the name Brad Parscale in mind.' We were going to hear a lot more about him.

What a shockingly written article. Who will be embarrassed? The amazingly able family or the others who took credit.

Did Parscale have no idea when he was hired or did Jared have no idea when he hired him.

We can deduce what the answers may be but poorly written and ambiguous.

10. "this family's amazing ability"

Yeah, amazing ability to profit at the expense of others.

“Hiiiiii, are you here with your daddy today? Let’s go see if we can find you a cookie and some juice....”

12. Eric? Really?

Didn't seem like the campaign let him do much of anything.

14. I know. Hes clearly the dummy of the family.

And that says something.
