The Vaping Congressman Reveals the Secret to Being an Effective Surrogate for Donald Trump
The New York Times Magazine has a story this week on the political operation behind Donald Trump’s rise to power. Of particular note is the introduction of Paul Manafort, a mean motherfucker who has whipped everyone into shape—including the rock star vaping congressman, Duncan Hunter:
Manafort had managed to impose a veneer of Beltway respectability on the campaign. More field organizers were now materializing in states like Pennsylvania, where local volunteers had hitherto been left largely to fend for themselves. Supporters who previously received no direction from the campaign before going on TV to expound on the candidate’s policies — “I just make [expletive] up,” Representative Duncan Hunter of California confessed to a Trump senior adviser — were now receiving daily talking points.
That’s the vape life, baby.
