If you look at John Kerrys campaign, when he was running, he was making changes as late as Labor Day, and dont forget were still in August, Lewandowski said on CNN.The remark prompted host Kate Bolduan to point out the obvious: Kerry lost the race for the White House in 2004 to George W. Bush.Nonetheless, Lewandowski insisted that last-minute changes could still be good.Well, I understand, but the change in 2004 that John Kerry made helped him actually do significantly better than what he was doing, he said.Lewandowski, who reportedly clashed with Paul Manafort, Trumps since-departed campaign chairman,when the two worked together, said it was clear Trump was unhappy with the direction in which Manafort was leading the campaign.The new campaign leadership, Lewandowski said, would allow Trump to be more authentic.Sometimes you have to bring different perspectives in. Sometimes, you have to change things, particularly, in a campaign that, in the last three or four weeks has missed, in my opinion, opportunities to go after Hillary Clinton for the failures of her campaign and to point out those failures. I dont think theyve done a good job on that, he said.Editors note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar, rampant xenophobe, racist, misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims1.6 billion members of an entire religionfrom entering the U.S. -- This feed and its contents are the property of The Huffington Post, and use is subject to our terms.
