Schlossberg’s campaign has seen a significant amount of staff turnover since he began his bid, the Times noting that he’s had at least two campaign managers, two field directors, and revolving door of consultants. Notably, the outlet said that while some staffers were fired after a matter of weeks, others actually stayed on long after Schlossberg had let them go because he never told them so.
Jorge Muñiz Reyes told the Times that he left his role as a canvassing coordinator with the Schlossberg campaign last week, comparing the operation to a “dollar-store flower bouquet.”
“The colors might be nice to look at for a few days,” Muñiz Reyes said, “But since the flowers lack roots, they can’t last very long.”
Schlossberg defended how his campaign is run during his sit-down with CNN. “I run an operation that is nimble and small with a core group of young people, primarily women, who are running a campaign that is completely different, with a different strategy and a pace that a lot of people actually can’t keep up with,” he said.
