Several prominent conservatives are starting to get concerned and are voicing their displeasure with the Trump campaign.
No, these are not Rick Wilson, TDS, or RINOs, these are prominent Trump supporters like Mollie Hemingway, Michael Cernovich and others. They are raising some valid concerns.
First up was a July 30 statement from the Trump Vance campaign disowning Project 2025 for like the fifth time.
“Trumpworld bows down to left-wing media lies, and keeps signaling he doesn’t want his most loyal foot soldiers — who kept with him even when very few others did — or their conservative ideas in his next administration. Interesting,” Hemingway wrote.

Before everybody freaks out on us, remember Trump had several big-time staffing changes during his initial run because they weren’t doing a good job.
Redstate writer Bonchie backed up Hemingway after she was attacked by some Trump supporters.
People are mad at Mollie, who is a very outspoken Trump supporter, for expressing a very fair disagreement over strategy.
“But he’s just trying to get elected!” Alright, what if he doesn’t? What if all this moderating and throwing conservatives under the bus leads to losing? https://t.co/iwaSDdiRuj

Prominent Trump supporters, The Hodgetwins from 2026 also showed concern.
TBH we don’t trust either of these people representing Trump

There’s growing concern that Trump’s campaign manager, Chris LaCivita is doing what took place when Trump took office in 2016. Got the faithful out and replace them with RINO establishment types.
Raheem Kassam of all people is savaging the Trump campaign for focusing its energy on attacking conservatives like the Heritage Foundation rather than establishing a ground game to win the election https://t.co/8ujEJ8FJCK pic.twitter.com/e1Ba9MeF9b

LaCivita seemed to be the right guy to campaign against Biden. Trump’s campaign capitalized on every Biden mistake but he may not be the right person to campaign against Kamala.
Conservative commentator Michael Cernovich pointed out that LaCivita was for the impeachment of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.
Trumps campaign manager had an active X account.
In 2016 and 2020, no mention of voting for Trump.
He was sharing articles saying to arrest Texas AG Paxton.
Liking posts saying Trump is a domestic terrorist.
Cope all you like. I don’t care.
Those are the facts.

Below is a post he hasn’t deleted on his X account in 2021.

Not a great idea to have someone who doesn’t understand the vision running your campaign especially when he said he wanted you in prison over January 6th.
Meanwhile Project 2025 people were around in 2016.
If you don’t understand this is a coup against Trump, I can’t help you.

If the Trump campaign’s defense of the Vance pick is “they were going to attack whoever it was anyway,” why on Earth are they caving on the Project 2025 charge? Does Kamala need to apologize for the Free Palestine (pro-Hamas) nonsense? Just ignore it. Move on.

Meanwhile, Kamala Harris is building a lot of momentum. Yes…you are correct that it’s fake momentum but often perception is reality.
Liberals are “trend jumpers,” herd animals, and easily influenced by social media. Why do you think the Harris campaign is hiring social media influencers to push her propaganda, paying $50k-$110k a year?
Digital organizing manager and “leads” are the job titles for social media influencers.
I took pictures of two:
So a lot of the social media buzz you see like this…
They’re playing Kamala remixes in the clubs. Trump is so cooked. pic.twitter.com/fYcPiXVCxY

It could be coming from well-paid social media organizers.
But for some reason, neither the GOP nor the Trump campaign are doing this. I’m not saying this is Trump’s fault; this isn’t stuff he should be involved in; that’s why he has a staff. They don’t even need to hire people because they already exist.
This is the smart and modern way to win hearts, minds, and elections.
The fact that Democrats are all in but Republicans pompously think they’re above it is incredibly disappointing— but expected.
Democrats play to win. Everything they do is carefully concocted to win votes. https://t.co/E8C8sj5OOc
