According to the publication, trump demoted Parscale in July because he was not happy with the organization of a number of events as part of his election campaign. It is also alleged that the former Manager was criticized for the fact that millions of dollars from campaign funds were credited to the accounts of his firms.

Earlier, trump fell out with the main investor of the Republican party — billionaire Sheldon Adelson. Adelson wanted to discuss a bill with trump on aid during the coronavirus and the economy. However, the President turned the conversation to his campaign. In particular, he asked Adelson why he was not taking big steps for his campaign.
