There was also the return of Stephanie Alexander, who was on the campaign in 2016 and returned in May as campaign chief of staff.<\/p>\n<p>Still, multiple sources told Fox News that many expected Parscale to stay through the election, and that Wednesday night\u2019s announcement came as a \u201csurprise\u201d and that many were \u201cshocked.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey shouldn\u2019t be,\u201d a senior administration official told Fox News. \u201cHad to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The official added: \u201cThis doesn\u2019t surprise anyone who knows POTUS and how he wants his campaign run.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stepien, before joining the campaign and the Trump administration, previously managed both of former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie\u2019s gubernatorial campaigns. Stepien also served as Christie\u2019s deputy chief of staff.<\/p>\n<p>One source familiar with the move told Fox News that Stepien is a &#8220;really hard worker,&#8221; while another said he is &#8220;married to his job.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/biden-leads-in-pennsylvania-point-to-secret-trump-vote-poll\">BIDEN LEADS IN NEW SWING STATE POLL BUT MAJORITY SAY &#8216;SECRET TRUMP VOTERS&#8217; COULD TILT ELECTION<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cBill\u2019s MO is to keep under the radar and keep his head down and stay focused on the job. So if anything, all the attention he\u2019s gotten probably makes him a little uncomfortable,&#8221; another Republican operative told Fox News. &#8220;He knows his role is to be the guy behind the guy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The operative added that the campaign was looking for someone who was a &#8220;strong&#8221; and\u00a0&#8220;experienced\u00a0operative.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Brad is the best in the business when it comes to data but he\u2019s not a political operative,&#8221; the operative explained.\u00a0&#8220;Stepien is one of the best political operatives in the country and innately understands data and field and its integration and how to use that to move votes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The president announced the shake-up Wednesday night in a statement on social media.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am pleased to announce that Bill Stepien has been promoted to the role of Trump Campaign Manager,\u201d the president said in a statement. \u201cBrad Parscale, who has been with me for a very long time and has led our tremendous digital and data strategies, will remain in that role, while being a Senior Advisor to the campaign.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The president added that both Parscale and Stepien \u201cwere heavily involved in our historic 2016 win, and I look forward to having a big and very important second win together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This one should be a lot easier as our poll numbers are rising fast, the economy is getting better, vaccines and therapeutics will soon be on the way, and Americans want safe streets and communities!\u201d the president added.<\/p>\n<p>The move comes as the president\u2019s polling numbers have fallen, with the latest RealClearPolitics average showing Trump trailing Biden by more than 8 percentage points.<\/p>\n<p>The move also comes as the Trump administration has faced immense criticism over the handling of the coronavirus pandemic, an issue that has spilled out onto the campaign trail with Democrats\u2014and Biden himself\u2014hammering the president regularly.<\/p>\n<p>But a major campaign shake-up in the general election for Trump is hardly unprecedented. In 2016, Trump had three campaign managers: Corey Lewandowski, who ran Trump\u2019s primary campaign and\u00a0was removed ahead of the conventions; Paul Manafort, who ran Trump\u2019s campaign during the convention and then was removed, and is now currently serving jail time for charges stemming from former Special Counsel Robert Mueller\u2019s investigation; and Kellyanne Conway,\u00a0who led the campaign through the general election to Trump\u2019s victory.<\/p>\n<p>The shakeup follows a similar one less than a month ago, when Michael Glassner, organizer of the president\u2019s rallies, was\u00a0reassigned, and Jeff DeWit, who served as Arizona chairman of Trump\u2019s 2016 presidential campaign,\u00a0joined the 2020 staff as chief operating officer.<\/p>\n<p>That change was in response to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/trump-campaign-rejects-idea-that-tiktok-k-pop-fans-sabotaged-rally-dont-know-what-theyre-talking-about\">lower-than-expected crowd turnout<\/a> at a rally in\u00a0Tulsa, which embarrassed the president and put the campaign on the defensive. The Trump team noted that the rally <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/trump-rally-gives-fox-news-largest-saturday-night-audience-in-history\">attracted<\/a> large numbers of television and online viewers, and that the coronavirus may have led many supporters to stay at home.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Biden campaign Rapid Response Director Andrew Bates, in a statement to Fox News, reacted to the news of the shakeup by saying: &#8220;Almost 140,000 Americans have lost their lives and millions more have lost their jobs because of Donald Trump&#8217;s failed leadership. The Trump campaign&#8217;s game of musical chairs won&#8217;t fix this. We need a new president for that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Biden also shuffled his campaign team amid a disastrous stretch in his campaign, albeit much earlier in the cycle. For Biden, the moves marked genuine shakeups that expanded and changed how campaign operated.<\/p>\n<p>Biden elevated Anita Dunn, effectively displacing his first campaign manager, Greg Schultz, after a fourth-place Iowa finish and after he was already headed for a second embarrassing finish in New Hampshire. Dunn had joined Biden at the outset of his campaign after having served President Barack Obama as a top communications adviser.<\/p>\n<p>With Dunn\u2019s urging, Biden hired his current campaign manager, Jen O\u2019Malley Dillon, in March after Dunn and others helped resurrect Biden in Nevada and South Carolina and put him on the path to the nomination. Schultz is now at the Democratic National Committee, helping lead the joint battleground strategy among the national party, the Biden campaign and state parties.<\/p>\n<p><em>Fox News&#8217; Paul Steinhauser,\u00a0Kristin Fisher and Gregg Re contributed to this report.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/parscale-replacement-shocked-trump-campaign-staffers-despite-speculation\" class=\"button purchase\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brad Parscale\u2019s abrupt demotion Wednesday night \u201cshocked\u201d some inside the Trump campaign, sources familiar with the move told Fox News, even as President Trump\u2019s sliding poll numbers and the recent Tulsa rally debacle had raised questions about his future.The president announced on Facebook and later on Twitter Wednesday night that Parscale would be replaced as&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":57663,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[7408,7412],"class_list":{"0":"post-57662","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-parscale","9":"tag-replacement"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
