Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale had an unusual cameo in the president’s first television ad of the year: Sandwiched among images of Trump and Vice President Pence, the bearded Parscale appears twice, taking a selfie with supporters and hugging girls in red ball caps.It was an unprecedented use of an ad — one that cost $142,655, according to the firm Ad Analytics — to promote a campaign staffer.
. Sometimes, Republican Party chairwoman Ronna McDaniel and Chris Carr, the party’s political director, joined the conversations.The advisers discussed polling, potential campaign events, organizing and other topics, officials said. Parscale, though, returned to his home in Florida after visiting Washington early in the week and continued to dial into conference calls, officials said.
“Brad is absolutely the right man for the job,” said House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy . “His work ethic and command of what it takes to run a successful campaign in 2020 is second to none.” That confidence, however, has not prevented internal complaints about Parscale’s frequent absence from campaign headquarters. Parscale lives in Florida, and the campaign is based in Northern Virginia, and staffers say that when they talk to him, he is often by his pool in Fort Lauderdale.“You can’t have a campaign manager who isn’t even around the campaign,” said another senior White House official, who also spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal dynamics.
The ads, which a senior campaign official said were not bought at the campaign manager’s urging, place Parscale’s name and image in voters’ Facebook feeds, and they link back to his fan page. That page, in turn, included a link to Parscale’s consulting company until recently, and it continues to offer dozens of photographs of Parscale in action — dining with the Trumps, in a Super Bowl skybox, flying on Air Force One.
In comparison, records show that Biden’s campaign manager, Jen O’Malley Dillon, has been paid $11,486 a month since taking over in April. That number, which is low for someone in such a senior position, does not include any other undisclosed payments or bonuses she may have negotiated. The senior administration official said that members of the Trump family are familiar with Parscale’s pay package and are comfortable with it.
