Candice later <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2020/09/30/brad-parscale-stepping-down-trump-campaign-424069">retracted</a> her statements to the police and a federal judge ordered that Parscale's guns be removed from his possession.&nbsp;</p><p>Parscale was <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/brad-parscale-trump-kushner-digital-email-website-postpresidency-45officecom-2021-2">brought back onto Trump's team</a> to build the former president's new website and help lead his digital efforts after the election.&nbsp;</p><p><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/caitlyn-jenner-getting-campaign-advice-from-trump-aide-brad-parscale-2021-4#comments">Join the conversation about this story &#187;</a></p> <p>NOW WATCH: <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/worlds-most-expensive-liquid-thoroughbred-horse-semen-2020-3">Why thoroughbred horse semen is the world's most expensive liquid</a></p>
