US President Donald Trump has picked one of his political strategists as campaign manager for his 2020 re-election campaign.
The Trump Organization hired Brad Parscale in 2011 as a digital guru.
“The president’s son, Eric Trump, said in a press release on Tuesday:”Brad is an amazing talent and was pivotal to our success in 2016.
Mr Parscale said he had told lawmakers he had no knowledge of the alleged Kremlin plot to influence the campaign in favour of Mr Trump.
Mr Parscale told a CBS 60 Minutes programme last year that his 100-strong digital team created up to 60,000 ads on Facebook to reach Trump supporters every day.
The digital guru’s firm, Giles-Parscale, billed the Trump campaign $94m for its work on the election, according to US media.
Mr Parscale hired the British data analysis firm Cambridge Analytica to work for the Trump campaign.
