Donald Trump’s campaign manager Brad Parscale has been having a bad month to say the least. There have been reports that Trump blames Parscale for his weak poll numbers. This comes amid reports that Parscale has been living the luxury life, to the point that TV ads have been trying to goad Trump into firing him.

Trump didn’t fire Parscale today, but he did do something that seems to be steering things in that direction. Trump installed Bill Stepien as Parscale’s new Deputy Campaign Manager – a move that’s often made as a way of trying to nudge someone out. Worse, Twitter is finally posting fact check disclaimers on some of Trump’s most dishonest tweets, meaning Parscale’s social media strategy is in danger of failing as well.

Suffice it to say that Parscale isn’t taking any of it well. He tweeted this today: “Partnering with biased fake news ‘fact checkers’ is a smoke screen to lend Twitter’s obvious political tactics false credibility. There are many reasons we pulled all our advertising from Twitter months ago, and clear political bias is one of them.”

Well okay then. Because, sure, pulling your ads in protest is a great way to win an election. The kicker is that this isn’t even true; Twitter got rid of all political advertising months ago. Come to think of it, Twitter may now have to do a fact check on Parscale’s false tweet. Trump and Parscale each have no idea what they’re doing, and it’s only getting uglier for them both.
