Former campaign manager for Donald Trump, Brad Parscale, who was replaced by the President less than four month until November’s 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.

1. Just do it, asshole.

[Bonx]

32. Are you encouraging someone to kill themselves?

[llashram]

47. I wouldn't care

if...

[snowybirdie]

2. Wow, hope he recovers soon

but it does look like the rats are deserting the sinking ship.

[Demonaut]

3. come out, come clean

[Mr.Bill]

4. This is the guy that's laundering campaign money

to pay Eric's wife and Don Jr's girlfriend 15K a week for god knows what.

[drray23]

5. Imagine the police called on a black person

who is armed and barricaded with suicidal thoughts. We all know what would have happened. Apparently Parscale was admitted into an hospital without getting shot.

[llashram]

51. he, she or the child

so far as young as 11 years old, would be shot dead within 1.5 seconds of arriving on the scene, guaranteed.

[progressive nobody]

6. Is this in connection to the tax story?

[tclambert]

23. If Trump diverted campaign funds to pay his massive debts, Parscale might have participated.

What did they really do with that billion dollar war chest? Did some of it get secretly redirected to non-campaign purposes? That would be what everybody but Mitch McConnell's Senate and William Barr's Department of Justice would call a crime.

[progressive nobody]

25. ouch! oh, shit!

[Sucha NastyWoman]

35. Maybe that's also where the funds meant for the inauguration ceremonies went?

[llashram]

52. that 800,000,000 million

missing dollars is hidden by the grifter family to enjoy when they are sent packing on January 20th, 2021.

[LiberalFighter]

7. Even if he had no connection with Trump or other corrupt Republicans my first impression of him

would be he was a scumbag.

[dalton99a]

17. He was a scumbag and a key player

[intheflow]

28. Wow, that's a great graphic!

Thanks for adding this clarity to the thread.

8. Distraction

Brad is running interference for the Trump tax story. Or he's really suicidal. I'm good either way really.

[mindfulNJ]

9. Everything Trump touches dies.

Literally.

Poor wretched man. I hope he gets the help he needs.

[rebe303]

37. Seriously

You actually feel bad for this POS?

[Aristus]

10. Police are asking the public for help resolving the issue.

So far, volunteers have offered one hour of free therapy, and forty cases of ammunition.

[denbot]

34. Snort!

11. All the chickens are coming home to roost.

12. Call Jared. He is a fan.

29. No lie! n/t

[MaryMagdaline]

14. Suicide is not the answer. Come to the light.

Dump Trump and save your soul.

[durablend]

15. He can't

Likely in too deep

[MaryMagdaline]

18. Probably so

[Dr. Jack]

16. Heard he might be at the hospital right now

[Doodley]

19. This tax story is the tipping point.

[BumRushDaShow]

20. Oh my goodness - here is a link to the actual news source (other than the reddit link)

30. Thanks for the original source!

Today's news cycle is fascinating!

[BumRushDaShow]

42. You need to use that as your LBN link though

so the Hosts don't lock your thread.

[dixiegrrrrl]

21. My money is on lots of cocaine use and a desperate conscience.

First thing they will do is a 72 hour hold, drug screen, and psych eval.

This is gonna get interesting. Wonder if he is under investigation for money mis-management.

[SayItLoud]

22. Meth will do that to ya. nt

[howardmappel]

24. If he had been black he would be dead. N/t

[happy feet]

49. Exactly!

Am I the only one who immediately thought about the African American gentleman in NY whose brother called police to find him, a truck driver saw him and called the police? He was in the street, buck naked, in the cold with light snow, mentally deranged and the police couldn't bother to wrap him in a blanket let alone not MURDER him. Parscale is in his locked room armed to the teeth and taken into custody without incident. Why? Because Parscale was seen as a fellow human being in mental distress and treated accordingly. The black gentleman was seen and treated worse than an animal.

That's why BLM!

[machI]

26. Do the right thing Brad.

Trump will take care of you.

This scene comes to mind...

31. "and threatening to harm himself..."

That reminds me of this scene from "Blazing Saddles":

This further documents the threats blacks have had from the law with throughout history.

Sorry about the language not being PC.

39. Remember this? He was the "crux" of the Russia investigation.

44. Ex-Trump campaign manager in hospital after threatening to hurt himself

Donald Trump's former campaign manager Brad Parscale has been taken to hospital after threatening to hurt himself, police in Florida have said.

His wife had called police to say he had multiple firearms and was threatening to harm himself at their home in Fort Lauderdale on Sunday.

However, police said he was alone in the house at the time and officers had managed to negotiate with him to leave the property.

Mr Parscale was taken to hospital under the state's Baker Act, which allows anyone believed to be a threat to themselves or others to be detained for 72 hours for psychiatric evaluation.

45. They're Coming

Mean-spirited? He's a Trumpie, so, yeah, absolutely.

[lagomorph777]

46. This is really good news - they are buckling under the pressure.

[Larissa]

54. Buckling under

The Daily Dot: "Speculation has arisen that numerous issues in Parscale’s personal life, including the accusation that he was involved in helping the Trump campaign launder $170 million, could be linked to his recent behavior."

Trump fans were not pleased by Brad Parscale's treatment by the Fort Lauderdale police. But the wild card was the significant presence of firearms in the home, ten (10) of which the police removed. Parscale's wife advised the police that her husband had loaded the chambers of one of his firearms in her presence; Parscale had also assaulted his wife earlier in the week -- she had visible bruising; that he was suicidal. Mrs. Parscale had actually fled her home and ran to a neighbor's house for help. Under those circumstances, the police could not assume that Parscale wasn't armed when he finally came out of the house. Better the wrestling to the ground than the "suicide by cop" if Parscale had a spare firearm on him. The entire incident is tragic and sad.

[VA_Jill]

48. But

if he were a poor man, or a homeless vet, or a POC, he would have been shot to death. You know that's true.

[bluestarone]

50. He needs to start worrying about maybe

Some of that putin poison getting to HIM and his whole family? Time to tell the story the WHOLE story!!
