‘STAFF SUICIDAL….’
John Harword is a CNBC reporter:
longtime ally of Paul Manafort, Trump's campaign manager: "Manafort not challenging Trump anymore. Mailing it in. Staff suicidal."

So… is the media lying, or is Trump putting this all out there for a lark? I noticed that Katrina Pierson seemed really rattled tonight on the Megyn Kelly show – she said that Obama was one of the “most qualified” candidates to ever run for President, and that he had “disabilized” the Middle East. I don’t know how to spell the word, because it’s not a real word. So is the Trump camp imploding? Stay tuned….
There was more:

“Lately”? LOL! He’s been doing the exact same thing for months!!!
UPDATE!!
THE TOUPEE IS REALLY HITTING THE FAN!
Top republican: @Reince is 'apoplectic' over Trump's refusal to back Ryan. He called several Trump staffers to express his displeasure.

More from same source: The next 24 to 72 hours are crucial. There is serious talk about key Republicans coming out hard against Trump.

Wait, seriously, that’s what got you morons fired up finally? That he didn’t endorse Paul Ryan? I guess all that unconstitutional irrational bleating that he’s done against the conservative movement was OK, as long as you got a Paul Ryan endorsement? Pathetic. You deserve to have your party burned down by Trump….
