EXCLUSIVE: The Trump campaign is investigating campaign spending, Parscale contracts

[Julian English]

President Donald Trump's reelection campaign is conducting an internal review of spending irregularities overseen by Brad Parscale, its recently demoted 2020 campaign manager, Insider has learned.

Jeff DeWit, an accountant and former chief financial officer of NASA who recently joined the Trump 2020 effort as its chief operating officer, confirmed in an interview Friday that he was reviewing all campaign contracts and examining all spending.

While DeWit said the review wasn't specifically focused on Parscale, other Republicans familiar with the effort said it inherently homes in on the top Trump aide because he controlled all campaign spending, from polling and advertising to voter surveys, during a tenure that started in January 2017.

"We want an effective and efficient organization, and we're certainly not targeting anybody," DeWit told Insider. "We don't like to see a single dollar fly out of the campaign without knowing where it's going."

Hard to imagine a Trump manager being a crook.

[LiberalFighter]

1. They need to be careful about doing that.

We all know that the Trump family is funneling the money back to themselves.

[truthisfreedom]

2. Hard to imagine indeed.

[Thomas Hurt]

3. Poor Brad, out the door and gonna be scapegoated...

to try to smear some of Trump's and the campaign's corruption off on the "bad apple".

Can see it now, the campaign and Donnie will be shocked at what Brad did all on his own...(wink, wink)

Brad will suddenly become someone the Pig barely knew existed.

[magicarpet]

4. No,... this improbable,... incomprehensible,... unfathomable,...

.... trDumpie only hires the best people in the whole country.

[Sloumeau]

5. Hahaha, I bet Grifter Brad really milked the Trump campaign. :) nt

[no_hypocrisy]

6. Translated: Parscale stole the money that Trump was going to steal.

[fierywoman]

15. Or: of the stolen money, didn't funnel enough kickback $ to the trump org.

[Journeyman]

7. I'm reminded of the Russian soccer team that sued their manager for stealing the money . . .

they'd given him to bribe the referees.

[Champp]

8. Oh well, Braddy Biggieboy always has Hope. Right?

Republican thruples have troubles.

[Champp]

9. P.S. What does the Bible say about Republican throuples?

[ToxMarz]

17. Hope Hicks hooks up for financial/career opportunity

Brad can't offer that anymore. Just another butt ugly dude and now, incel.

[stillcool]

10. what about the part that..

Trump uses as a piggy-bank? Spending irregularities must be the same as cooking the books.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

11. Wouldn't they have to know what "spending irregularities" means in the

first place?

[yellowcanine]

12. They knew Brad was a grifter like all of the other Trumpers so what is the big deal?

[ananda]

13. That's rich. The irony is mindbreaking.

Trump and family, and Trump properties, are
recipients of campaign dollars.

[JDC]

14. I smell a scapegoat!

[Frustratedlady]

16. What's the problem? The Trump family afraid they missed some easy cash? Looks like the pot calling

the kettle black.

I'm sure we'll soon see that the Trump family made off with millions.

[bucolic_frolic]

18. The money went in the wrong direction

[SWBTATTReg]

19. Nothing like honor among thieves, eh?

[keithbvadu2]

20. Next up? Ivanka and the inauguration money? - - - Foolish question.

Next up? Ivanka and the inauguration money? - - - Foolish question.

[central scrutinizer]

21. Brad, meet bus

First rule in the mob. Don’t skim the vig. Bwah hah hah!

[BadGimp]

22. re: "Hard to imagine a Trump manager being a crook."

LMAO

Great Snark

[DeminPennswoods]

23. Parscale made the mistake of profiting off

Trump then bragging about it.

[jmowreader]

24. I suspect this has nothing to do with spending

It has everything to do with destroying Parscale's life because Trump's numbers are going in the wrong direction.

[tavernier]

25. I smell another tell-all book coming...

[BlueIdaho]

26. The real reason Parscale is in the barrel...

He made a bunch of money on one of Don’s grifts - nobody gets in the way of the con. Oh - and he’s diddling Hope Hicks - Donny’s little tug job fantasy.

[JI7]

27. What if he stole money that was illegally obtained ?

[oasis]

28. Brad may uncover a Trump skeleton or two. They better take care.
