Roger Ailes breaks away from ‘waste of time’ Trump just before the final debate

Roger Ailes breaks away from ‘waste of time’ Trump just before the final debate
David Ferguson DAVID FERGUSON 19 OCT 2016 AT 14:28 ET

Ousted Fox News head Roger Ailes and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump have fallen out and are no longer speaking, sources say.

Emily Jane Fox of Vanity Fair reported on Wednesday that New York magazine’s Gabriel Sherman and Vanity Fair editor Sarah Ellison have both been informed that the longtime friends Trump and Ailes are no longer on good terms, but the reasons for the parting of ways vary according to who you ask.

“Ailes’s camp said Ailes learned that Trump couldn’t focus — surprise, surprise — and that advising him was a waste of time,” Sherman said Tuesday morning at Vanity Fair’s New Establishment Summit. “These debate prep sessions weren’t going anywhere.”

People like them do not have friends.

At best, they have temporary accomplices.
