Stone worked for Trump in various capacities for 40 years and claims to be organizing demonstrations supporting Trump at the Cleveland Convention. He has no official position with the campaign since leaving in August 2015. Trump has just hired Stone’s former partner, Paul Manafort, to help delegate-wrangle.
A former senior adviser to Donald Trump claims the Republican presidential front-runner has virtually no campaign infrastructure in the primary states that lie ahead.
Roger Stone, who left the Trump campaign last August, said Wednesday on Breitbart News radio that the billionaire should consider his landslide loss in Wisconsin a warning to his campaign that it needs to be better organized in states like Pennsylvania, Maryland and Indiana, which are set to hold their nominating contests between now and early May.
“It’s an early wakeup call, as it were, for the Trump campaign,” Stone said.
He continued, “Look, Trump’s campaign has been fueled, from the beginning, with these hot button issues and an extraordinary communications-based strategy, where you utilize these huge rallies, the incredible media coverage they have generated, plus the high-profile debates, plus — give Trump credit — any interview he could do, as many interviews as he could do to reach as many voters he can reach.”
