"Fergus Cullen is a washed-up hack..." - Granite Grok

“Fergus Cullen is a washed-up hack…”

H/T Jeff Chidester for sharing on Facebook.

(National Journal) Fergus Cullen, a former state party chairman, is perhaps the most blunt. He called Trump’s New Hampshire efforts “a Potemkin organization at best” but said he fully understands why political operatives like Lewandowski would make “a business decision” to make good money while they could.

Cullen said he knows when the ride ends: Before the deadline, Trump will eventually have to file a financial-disclosure statement, under penalty of perjury, that details his assets and liabilities. At that point later this year when the last extension is exhausted, Cullen predicted, Trump will declare that the other candidates have adopted his positions and therefore he has accomplished his goals, and he will drop out.

Lewandowski had earned $153,521 at Americans for Prosperity and its related groups in 2013, according to the nonprofit’s last available filing with the IRS. He declined to say how much Trump is paying him now, but said it would be a matter of public record next week when the campaign files its first FEC report.

He also rejected Cullen’s prediction. “Fergus Cullen is a washed-up hack who attempts to find ways to stay relevant by talking out both his mouth and his butt,” Lewandowski said. “Mr. Trump will meet all FEC disclosure deadlines without seeking an extension.”
