Report: Corey Lewandowski Lands CNN Gig
breitbart.com ^

Posted on 06/23/2016 11:29:43 AM PDT by hotsteppa

Former Donald Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski is joining CNN as a political commentator, according to a source familiar with the arrangement. It's a salaried position and will make Lewandowski exclusive to CNN, effective immediately. Trump fired Lewandowski on Monday, ending the tenure of the fiery operative who faced a steady string of controversies while guiding Trump's skeleton campaign operation to a shocking victory in the 2016 Republican presidential primary. That same afternoon, his first in-studio interview was with CNN's Dana Bash (an NBC News reporter caught up with him outside of Lewandowski's apartment as he headed down to the studio).

Indeed, but those two are almost tame compared to Tara and Ana.

We won't know for sure until he appears on air. CNN has at least one regular who reliably defends Trump (Jeffrey Lord), and occassionally allows others (like Miller) to appear under grilling.

Why would Corey take on a job at a failing company, which has as its goal the destruction of America? I’m starting to think that the Democrats had Corey killed and replaced with a body double, because his present actions are inconsistent with his past actions. Kudos to Trump for detecting whatever the issue with Corey is.

OMG! I literally told my Mom yesterday that I bet he ends up on CNN as a Trump supporter on the panel!

I think CNN is looking for a scorned supporter going to the other side.

Trump, his progeny, and his new campaign manager may eventually figure out it might have been better to keep Corey inside the tent while pissing out rather than the opposite.

Would love it if Corey could replace cRuz paramour Mandy Carpenter. She’s STILL having daily Trump tantrums, on Twitter. CNN needs to get that gal some help. Maybe she needs to take a break and travel to Mexico, or something.

I didn’t know she supported La Raza, but I do know she supports gay marriage. The Democrats love her and the other NeverTrumpers as long as they are bashing Trump. Ana Navarro was a Bush supporter who then switched to Rubio who then resigned herself to Cruz (who she didn’t like but liked more than Trump). All of her choices got defeated, so now she is pouting and refusing to vote.

I don’t know if you heard but Mitt Romney had a gathering of establishment Republicans. Ana was invited and went. She described it as a dysfunctional family gathering because there were people who liked Trump, were resigning themselves to vote for Trump, and NeverTrumpers. She said people were bickering about it.

Ana Navarro is a Dem operative/RINO/OpenBorders hack. Nothing more.

Based on the interview he did with Dana Bash after he was fired, he was pro-Trump all the way. She tried, but she could not get him to say a negative thing about the man. Trump praised him after the interview. Also, Corey spoke at a NY fundraiser for Trump after he was fired. He obviously still supports him.

Hey he has steady work through the election. You see this was the plan, it was a con job.

Fire Corey, make it look ugly, and see who would hire him. Then you have your guy on the inside and he will battle the the Liberals.

Actually, if Trump wins the General Election, this could be a very good thing for CNN and Corey.

Access and insider knowledge.

Hopefully Amanda Carpenter and/or SE Cupp resign because of this.

They may have hired him for a security position.

Who wants to bet that Corey turns into the liberal version of Dick Morris?

The only think missing is some toe sucking.

Yes, Essee Cupp....especially since she was one of the fools who signed the “Fire Corey” letter, after the bimbo reporterette shenanigans.

Good for Corey. Hopes he tweets a snarky comment or has the opportunity to make one to M Fields
