Donald Trump's presidential campaign announced Wednesday night that it had parted ways with its national political director Rick Wiley just a few months after he was hired. "Rick Wiley was hired on a short-term basis as a consultant until the campaign was running full steam. Wiley predicted Trump's campaign would be able to match what "Obama was able to do in 2008." Trump's campaign said in a statement that Wiley's position was not a permanent one, and thanked him for his service. The campaign did not indicate the terms of Wiley's departure, but sources told Politico that Wiley was not responsive to campaign manager Corey Lewandowski and clashed with other Trump campaign officials.
