It’s been an unpleasant few weeks for Brad Parscale, President Donald Trump’s former campaign manager, who apparently broke down in tears when he was taken into police custody last month and told an officer he was upset because his wife refused to be intimate with him, The New York Post reports.

Police were called after Parscale’s wife Candice, fled their home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and asked for help from a realtor who was showing a home nearby.

When police arrived, Candice told officers Parscale was armed and had talked about harming himself. The situation erupted into a two-hour standoff before an allegedly drunk Parscale left the house and taken into custody.

It’s while he was being detained by police that Parscale made the comment regarding the state of his marriage.

“I just couldn’t accept she isn’t having s*x with me,” Parscale, in tears, told a female officer at the hospital after September 27 mental breakdown. The incident was revealed by police body cam videos obtained by TheDailyMail

“I just couldn’t accept it,” Parscale, 44, can be heard saying. “Not in months. I couldn’t accept it. I just kept asking her.”

Parscale was evaluated at the hospital, but not charged during the incident.

In several instances, Candice Parscale appears to have bruises on her arms and a swollen lip and she initially told police her husband had hit her. Days later she backtracked during an interview with Politico, claiming police “misconstrued” her statements, adding that Parscale had never hurt her. While at the hospital Parscale made the bizarre claim that this was all a plot hatched by his wife to steal his money, the bodycam videos revealed. He can also be heard saying he plans to divorce his wife.

“She didn’t have a bruise on her,” Parscale is heard saying. “I’ve never touched her. This is all about money.”

“I got f*cking tackled for wanting my wife’s attention,” he sobbed while be placed in the back of a patrol car.

“She knows exactly what she is doing,” Parscale is heard saying. “It is the most baller move of all time. It is the most checkmate, f*ck you move of all time. It is unf*cking believable.”

Having barricaded himself inside the house for more than an hour, the siege finally ended after he stumbled onto the front yard, shirtless and clutching a beer. At that time he was tackled to the ground and detained for a mental health evaluation. Police informed a judge that the man was a safety risk to himself and others and then confiscated a cache of 11 guns, including seven handguns, two rifles, and two shotguns.

Now it seems the Parscales are doing damage control and despite all the talk about divorce, the couple is maintaining a united front. They were seen running errands over the weekend and visiting friends.

“They have agreed to an uneasy truce for the time being,” one unnamed source said. “Candice was badly shaken up by the whole incident but she feels a lot safer without the guns in the house.”

“She has told Brad to curb his drinking and get professional help for his problems,” the source added. “Their issues are far from resolved but she is standing by her man, at least for now.”

You may remember that Trump demoted Parscale after a highly-touted rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma turned out to be a massive flop, but it’s also been reported that Parscale was also subjected to an audit investigation, where it is alleged that as much as $40 million has gone missing from Trump’s reelection campaign.

But as you might expect, Trump’s team is denying this, with deputy press secretary Ken Farnaso saying “there is no investigation, no audit, and there never was.”

However, if there’s one thing the Trump administration is reliable for, it’s spinning tall tales, casting doubts on the real truth, and pretending lies are the gospel truth, so it’s anyone’s guess as to what’s really going on here. Honestly, it will be a relief when this dog-and-pony show of an administration is gone.

Below, I’ve included the videos of Parscale’s bizarre behavior as well as one that shows Candace’s bruises.
