July 13: Donald Trump is suing a former campaign aide for $10 million, alleging that the ex-staffer breached a confidentiality agreement.

The lawsuit injects more drama to the Trump campaign as rumors swirl about the Republican presumptive nominee's vice presidential pick.

Sam Nunberg, who was fired late last summer from the campaign after racially charged Facebook posts of his surfaced, is the former aide being sued. Nunberg's lawyer, Andrew Miltenberg, told CNN Wednesday that Nunberg is being accused of "violating certain confidentiality provisions by talking about Donald Trump after he was no longer associated with the campaign."

March 5: Lawmaker wants ex-Trump aide Nunberg to testify ... A US lawmaker investigating alleged Russian election meddling says an ex-Trump aide should testify on wild claims he has made about the president.

Democrat Adam Schiff responded by saying his congressional panel "needs to explore" Mr Nunberg's allegation.

March 5: Former Trump Aide Sam Nunberg’s Mueller Meltdown Leaves Friends Petrified ... Those close to Nunberg said they fear he was drunk while going on a cable news blitz.

Sam Nunberg, an early political adviser to Donald Trump, had a very public meltdown on Monday afternoon, repeatedly daring special counsel Robert Mueller to greenlight his arrest and insinuating that his old boss, the president, did indeed do “something” wrong during the campaign.

“You know [Trump] knew about it,” Nunberg said at one point ... of the infamous Trump Tower meeting between campaign officials and a Russian lawyer. “He was talking about it a week before...I don't know why he went around trying to hide it."

Rarely, if ever, has a political operative acted so brazenly when facing the very real prospect of being tossed in jail.

March 5: After a day spent belligerently defying special counsel Robert Mueller, former Donald Trump campaign aide Sam Nunberg appeared to reverse himself Monday night and said he likely will cooperate with a subpoena seeking campaign documents related to the Russia investigation.

Nunberg helped Trump prepare for the first Republican presidential primary debate in August 2015 along with the man he has described as his mentor, veteran Republican operative Roger Stone. He made a bravado tour of television talk shows Monday declaring he wouldn't cooperate with the subpoena.

March 5: the reason he is no longer a Trump staffer is because a series of racist posts were discovered in the archives of his Facebook page, including one in which he referred to Al Sharpton’s daughter using the n-word, and another in which he called Barack Obama a “Socialist Marxist Islamo Fascist Nazi Appeaser.” His firing was kind of ironic given his boss’s own history of racist remarks about the 44th president

March 9: Former Trump campaign aide Sam Nunberg showed up Friday to testify before a grand jury hearing evidence of Russian meddling in the 2016 election, reversing his earlier vow to ignore a subpoena.

He even walked in the front door, where he was greeted by photographers.

Nunberg had begun the week in a similar media swarm when he made the round of cable TV shows to say he would not cooperate with special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation. At the time, he also mused about the possibility that Mueller may have built a case against the president.

"I think he (Trump) may have done something during the election," Nunberg said on MSNBC. He later told CNN that former campaign aide Carter Page may have colluded with the Russians.

March 23: Sam Nunberg was a name known only to a small coterie of political journalists until March 5, when it suddenly became inescapable. In a media barrage that will forever be known as The Full Nunberg, the former Donald Trump campaign aide streaked across the media landscape like a falling satellite. First he told The Washington Post that he had been subpoenaed by special counsel Robert Mueller but wouldn’t show up. He then phoned in live to MSNBC’s Katy Tur, telling her that he thought it would be funny if Mueller arrested him for contempt of court and that “Trump may very well have” colluded with Russia during the election. Then he called CNN to assert that Trump didn’t have anything to do with Russia, then CNN again and said that maybe Trump did, actually. He told POLITICO that Trump couldn’t have colluded because he “can’t keep his fucking mouth shut.” It didn’t end there. He repeated variations of his claims on the local news station NY1, then on MSNBC again, where a fellow panelist seemingly convinced him live on air that he would be looking at serious jail time if he didn’t comply with the subpoena, and finally CNN again where host Erin Burnett asked point-blank if Nunberg was drunk.

July 29: Former Trump aide Sam Nunberg just did a 180 on his stance on Trump's knowledge of the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting

Trump and his lawyers maintain that he did not know about the meeting before it was first reported on last summer.

In March, Nunberg scoffed at such a denial and suggested Trump knew about the meeting "a week before" it took place.

During an interview on NBC News' "Meet The Press," Nunberg said Sunday that he believed Trump over Cohen, though he never discussed the claims with Cohen.

"If Michael Cohen says now he knew about the Russia meeting in advance, I would believe Don Jr. and the president in light of learning Michael was taping conversations," Nunberg told the show's host, Chuck Todd.
