US Elections: Donald Trump adviser critiques campaign organisation on Facebook

On Super Tuesday US Presidential candidate Donald Trump  racked up big wins 7 states, but that wasn't good enough for a campaign adviser who took to Facebook to vent his frustration that his candidate lost in 4 states due to insufficient resources and lack of organisation.

As news broke that Trump posted loss at Texas, Oklahoma, Minnesota and Alaska, senior campaign adviser, John Hulsizer on Facebook posted, “How can we be expected to win States when National Staff makes decisions like only a Staff of 4 people to cover Texas and Oklahoma, not one single staffer in Alaska and in Minnesota there was just 1 staffer sent there three weeks ago.”

Hulsizer, a former US Marine was hired by Trump's campaign in June 2015. As adviser in northeastern Iowa ahead of the caucus, he "led grassroots organisational efforts, met with voters, identified potential supporters and organized rallies in his hometown of Dubuque", according to the Huffington Post.

On Facebook, Hulsizer said while Trump's field staff take the blame for failing to win some states, it's “the direction of the National Campaign staff that needs to be evaluated.” He questions which staff members are leading drives to register voters and secure Trump delegates, so the “election by the people isn’t stolen by party politics at the National convention.”

He also shared he does not trust he Republican National Committee. he believes, Trump's national political director, Michael Glassner, seemed to dismiss the concerns. “When I got my response from Michael Glassner about the delegates I flipped out,” Hulsizer wrote. “He said, ‘Mr. Trump doesn’t understand how delegates work, so we are leaving that issue alone right now.'”

Hulsizer also believes Trump's staff is not prepared to handle a national election.  “That says to me that either Mr. Trump is unteachable, which I don’t believe or that the National staff, mainly two big handlers are either lost themselves when it comes to the delegate process, believe that everyone will be fair and honest at the National convention or afraid to step up and explain why they are on the back end of the stick when it come to being prepared to handle a national election.”

Hulsizer currently still works for the campaign, according to his Linked In and Facebook accounts.
