Trump staffer fired following report of racially charged Facebook posts

A campaign aide to Donald Trump has been dismissed two days after racially offensive Facebook messages he allegedly posted in years past surfaced.

On Friday, Business Insider published a story detailing various items posted on Sam Nunberg's personal Facebook page since 2007. Among them were messages in which he uses a racial epithet in reference to Rev. Al Sharpton's daughter as well as provocative comments about President Obama, including one where he allegedly describes the president as a "Socialist Marxist Islamo Fascist Nazi Appeaser."

Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski told CNN on Friday that Nunberg would be terminated from the campaign if it were confirmed he authored the posts.

The Trump campaign confirmed Sunday that Nunberg was no longer associated with the Republican presidential candidate's campaign team.

Nunberg told Business Insider in its Friday story that he didn't "recall" the posts and that he was "shocked."
