Former campaign manager for Donald Trump, Brad Parscale, who was replaced by the President less than four month until Novembers vote was reportedly armed with a gun and threatening to harm himself at his Fort Lauderdale home on Sunday afternoon.
Police have not confirmed that Parscale worked for Trump, but records confirm that the property in Fort Lauderdale is owned by Parscale and Local 10 has spoken to neighbors who also said it was the former advisor to the President.
Fort Lauderdale Police responded to a home in reference to an armed male attempting suicide Sunday afternoon. When officers arrived on the scene, they made contact with the wife of the man who told them her husband was armed, had access to multiple firearms inside the house and was threatening to harm himself. She had placed the 911 call.
Fort Lauderdale Police said that the armed subject was transported to Broward Health Medical Center where he was placed under a Baker Act.

(51,590 posts)He did this in the AM before the story came out so did anyone get a tip that this was coming from NYT or it was just a coincidence in timing?

(6,854 posts)Have been talking/laughing about in their pod cast. One billion in campaign funds and nothing to show for it. They keep calling it the mother of all grifting and theyve said the new campaign manager must be looking at every expenditure. Might have called the feds (my guess, not Wilson/Schmidt). New campaign chair probably wants it clear he had nothing to do with any fraud or theft.

Stepien also worked for Bush/Cheney and for McCain.
