On Monday, presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald
Trump headed in a new direction without campaign manager Corey Lewandowski.
"The Donald J. Trump Campaign for
President, which has set a historic record in the Republican primary having
received almost 14 million votes, has today announced that Corey Lewandowski
will no longer be working with the campaign," the campaign said in a
statement. "The campaign is grateful to Corey for his hard work and
dedication and we wish him the best in the future."
The New York Times reported that one unnamed insider said the move had
been planned for some time, beginning when it became clear that Trump would
lock up the nomination.
Lewandowski, a former New Hampshire field director for a conservative advocacy group, has been with Trump since the wealthy New York developer began his White House bid a year ago.
He is still scheduled to attend the Cleveland convention as the chairman of New Hampshire's delegation.
