Report: Trump Campaign Chief Tried to Stop the Taco Bowl, Failed to Stop the Taco Bowl
On Wednesday, The Huffington Post offered a telling anecdote about the relationship between Donald Trump and recently demoted campaign chairman Paul Manafort, revisiting the story of Trump’s notorious taco bowl tweet from the perspective of those inside the campaign.
“Manafort was in the office with other aides when a member of the family suggested they tweet a picture of Trump enjoying his ‘Mexican’ lunch,” The Huffington Post reports. “Manafort politely suggested that this might be seen as condescending and cautioned against it. The tweet went out.”
Unfortunately, the story fails to identify the specific Trump family member who recommended the tweet, but we have a couple good guesses.
