Both former President Donald Trump and his campaign managers confirmed that Corey Lewandowski will come back to help the campaign, along with other former campaign staffers.
Lewandowski has been an unofficial advisor to the campaign but will take a more formal role, according to Politico.
Tim Murtaugh, who was communications director in 2020, will also return to the campaign along with Alex Pfeiffer and Alex Bruesewitz from the MAGA Inc. super PAC.
Leader of MAGA Inc. Taylor Budowich will also take on a senior role in the campaign, Politico reported.
“As we head into the home stretch of this election, we are continuing to add to our impressive campaign team,” Trump co-campaign managers Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita said in a statement. “Corey Lewandowski, Taylor Budowich, Alex Pfeiffer, Alex Bruesewitz, and Tim Murtaugh are all veterans of prior Trump campaigns and their unmatched experience will help President Trump prosecute the case against Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, the most radical ticket in American history.”
Lewandowski was supposedly exiled from "Trump World" in 2021 after Trashelle Odom, the wife of a major Trump donor, accused him of making unwanted advances toward her.
But Trump has kept him close and in the loop even if he didn't have a formal role until now outside consulting for the RNC.
Trump expressed confidence in Wiles and LaCivita as the new campaign staff were added.
He has experienced a bit of a polling slump since President Joe Biden stepped back from his re-election bid and Vice President Kamala Harris became the nominee.
This was bound to happen as a result of the shakeup--in fact, it's probably why they Democrats dumped Biden in the first place.
Voters seem to be attracted to Harris as the "new" face in the race, even though she has been largely ineffective as vice president.
The media has suddenly forgotten all of her gaffes and ineptitude, and so far the American public seems to be eating it up.
The debate should open people's eyes to Harris's true nature and how absolutely inept she will be if elected.
It's a mystery how she has surged in the polls despite no voters actually voting for her to be the nominee.
