Kamala Harris can run, but she can’t hide: Trump campaign adviser

SHORT ON SUBSTANCE. HOWARD: JOINING US NOW FROM WEST PALM BEACH, COREY LEWANDOWSKI WHO WAS DONALD TRUMP'S FIRST CAMPAIGN MANAGER IN 2016 AND NOW HAS JOINED THE CAMPAIGN AS A TOP OFFICIAL. WELCOME. HOW DO YOU SEE THE DEBATE, COREY? YOU SAY KAMALA HARRIS IS AN EASIER OPPONENT THAN 81-YEAR-OLD JOE BIDEN, BUT SHE'S 59, SHE'S CLEARLY ENERGIZED HER PARTY AND IMPROVED HER STANDING OVER BIDEN'S TO. >> YEAH. BUT, HOWIE, HERE'S THE DIFFERENCE: SHE CAN RUN FROM THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION AND THE FAILURES SHE'S BEEN PART OF, BUT SHE CAN'T HIDE. WE CAN GO BACK AND LOOK AT HER TENURE WHETHER AS ATTORNEY ATTORNEY GENERAL OR IN THE U.S. SENATE OR NOW AS THE VICE PRESIDENT. SHE'S CONTINUOUSLY CHANGED HER POSITION, SOME SAY LIE ABOUT HER POSITIONS WHEN IT COMES TO THE BORDER WALL, FRACKING AND NO TAX ON TIPS. SHE CONTINUOUSLY TAKES OVER THE TRUMP AGENDA ON THE POSITIONS THAT A DONALD TRUMP HAS, THAT HE'S ARTICULATED TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE BECAUSE SHE KNOWS THE AGENDA THAT SHE AND HER BOSS, JOE BIDE, AND HER RUNNING MATE, JOE WALZ, HAVE ARE SO OUTSIDE THE -- TIM WALZ HAVE, ARE SO OUTSIDE THE MAINSTREAM. HOW'D HOW'D DONALD TRUMP HAS CRITICIZED FLORIDA'S 6-WEEK ABORTION BAN, HE'S SAID ANOTHER TRUMP TERM WOULD BE GOOD FOR REPRODUCT WE'VE RIGHTS, I I KNOW THAT'S SPARKED BACKLASH, AND HE SAYS INSURANCE COMPANIES SHOULD PAY FOR IVF TREATMENTS AND HE FAVORS DECRIMINALIZATION OF MARIJUANA. THOSE ARE PRETTY CLEAR SIGNS HE'S MOVING TOWARDS THE CENTER. >> THOSE ARE POSITIONS THAT MOST OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AREN'T VOTING ON. LOOK, THEY'RE VOTING ON CRIME, NATIONAL SECURITY ISSUES AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, HOWIE, THE NUMBER ONE ISSUE IS THE ECONOMY. IT IS ALWAYS THE CASE. AND THE QUESTION YOU HAVE TO THE ASK YOURSELF, ARE YOU BETTER OFF TODAY THAN YOU WERE POUR YEARS AGO? AND -- FOUR YEARS AGO? IF DONALD TRUMP APPOINTED THREE PRO-LIFE JUDGES THAT OVERTURNED ROE V. WADE SO IT GOES BACK TO THE STATES AND THE STATES NOW DECIDE THROUGH ELECTIONS WHAT THOSE LAWS ARE GOING TO LOOK LIKE. AND WHAT HAPPENS IN KANSAS AND OHIO MAY BE VERY DIFFERENT THAN WHAT HAPPENS IN A A STATE LIKE NEW YORK OR ARIZONA. HOWARD: SURE. >> SO THE STATES ARE THE LABORATORIES OF DEMOCRACY, AND ALL DONALD TRUMP HAS DONE IS GIVE THE PEOPLE THE OPPORTUNITY TO VOTE ON HOW THEY WANT TO GOVERN THEMSELVES, AND THAT'S HOW THE SYSTEM'S SUPPOSED TO WORK. HOWARD: KAMALA HARRIS, WHO'S ALSO MOVING TOWARDS THE CENTER, INSISTS TRUMP WILL SIGN A NATIONAL ABORTION BAN WHEN HE'S EXPRESS ITSY -- EXPLICITLY SAID HE WILL NOT. >> OF COURSE QUESTION SAYS -- SHE SAYS THAT. WE KNOW THE DEMOCRATS' POSITION, AND PARTICULARLY TIM WALZ'S POSITION IS DEATH UP UNTIL 40 WEEKS, DEATH AFTER THE BABY IS BORN. WHAT DONALD TRUMP HAS SAID IS HE'S IN FAVOR OF THE THREE EXCEPTIONS, RAPE, INCEST AND LIFE OF THE MOTHER WHICH I THINK MOST OF THE PEOPLE IN AMERICA AGREE WITH. BUT THE DEMOCRATS ARE SO EXTREME ON THIS ISSUE, AND THAT'S THE ONLY ISSUE THEY WANT TO TO RUN ON BECAUSE THEY'RE RUNNING FROM THEIR RECORD, HOWIE. THEY HAVE NOTHING TO STAND ON TO THE MAKE AMERICANS' LIVES BETTER. HOWARD: KAMALA HARRIS HAS ALSO FLIPPED ON BANNING OF PLASTIC STRAWS. I JUST WANTED TO GET THAT IN THERE. SHE JUST TWEETED, THE VICE PRESIDENT SAID THAT TRUMP WILL END THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT. IS THAT HIS POSITION? IF. >> OF COURSE NOT. LISTEN, AGAIN, WHAT IS KAMALA HARRIS FOR? FROM OUR ESTIMATION THE WE HAVE DONE SINCE KAMALA HARRIS HAS BEEN THE DE FACTO NOMINEE, 34 SIT-DOWN INTERVIEWS OR PRESS CONFERENCES WHERE DONALD TRUMP AND J.D. VANCE HAVE ANSWERED QUESTIONS. KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ HAVE DONE EXACTLY ONE. SHE SPOKE FOR JUST UNDER 17 MINUTES, THERE WAS OF NO PUSHBACK DURING THAT A INTERVIEW. TIM WALZ'S ANSWER OF WHY HE LIED ABOUT CARRYING A GUN INTO WAR ZONE WAS BECAUSE HE HAS BAD GRAMMAR, AND THE ONLY THING HARRIS COULD SAY WAS THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION DIDN'T BAN FRACKING EVEN THOUGH SHE SAID SHE WOULD DO IT ON DAY ONE. AS THE VICE PRESIDENT, SHE DIDN'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO IT. I BELIEVE WE SHOULD LISTEN TO WHAT SHE SAYS. SHE WANTS TO BAN FRACKING. THAT WOULD BE DEVASTATING TO THE PEOPLE OF PENNSYLVANIA. HOWARD: WELL, I CAN ASK BECAUSE WHEN DONALD TRUMP WAS PRESIDENT, HE DID TRY TO GET RID OF OBAMACARE, BUT I THINK HE'S MOVED ON FROM THAT, SO I WANTED TO CLARIFY. DICK CHENEY, ONCE KNOWN AS DARTH VADAR, MR. WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION, SAYS HE'S VOTING FOR KAMALA HARRIS BECAUSE HE SAYS TRUMP IS THE GREATEST THREAT TO DEMOCRACY IN AMERICAN HISTORY. IS THAT A SETBACK FOR YOUR CAMPAIGN? >> LOOK, IT'S NOT A SETBACK. LOOK, YOU KNOW, HERE'S THE BOTTOM LINE, I DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS MOTION THAT DONALD TRUMP IS A THREAT TO DEMOCRACY. HE WENT THROUGH A COMPETITIVE PRIMARY IF PROCESS ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS INCLUDING THIS YEAR, HE WON MORE VOTES THAN ANY CANDIDATE IN THE HISTORY OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. THE PEOPLE HAVE CHOSEN HIM TO BE THE NOMINEE. KAMALA HARRIS HAS BEEN ANOINTED BY THE CREME CAN KARATES -- DEMOCRATS, NEVER WENT THROUGH THE PROCESS, KICKED JOE BIDEN OFF THE BALLOT BECAUSE WE SAW HIS TERRIBLE DEBATE PERFORMANCE. THE REAL THREAT TO TO DEMOCRACY? YOU REMEMBER THIS, HOWIE, THEY TRIED TO KEEP TRUMP OFF THE BALLOT IN SOME OF THOSE BATTLEGROUND STATES, AND EVEN THE LIBERAL SUPREME COURT JUSTICES SAID YOU CAN'T DO THAT. KAMALA HARRIS HAS JUST BEEN ANOINTED TO BE THE DEMOCRATS NEVER WENT THROUGH THE PRIMARY PROCESS, DIDN'T GET ANY VOTES. THAT'S REALLY WHAT THIS IS ABOUT. WE HAVE A PROCESS TO GO THROUGH WHICH ALLOWS INDIVIDUALS TO VOTE ON WHO THEIR NOMINEE TALK ABOUT -- SHOULD BE, AND SHE COMPLETELY BYPASSED IT BECAUSE HER RADICAL IDEAS ARE SO FAR OUT OF THE MAINSTREAM THAT SHE COULDN'T EVEN WIN A PRIMARY. OF LOOK, I BELIEVE THAT THE SYSTEM WAS FAIR. RFK JR. PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BEEN THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE, BUT THEY DID EVERYTHING THEY COULD TO KEEP HIM OFF THE BALLOT. HOWARD: THAT'S AN INTERESTING TAKE. SO YOU'RE NOT PARTICULARLY CONCERNED ABOUT DICK CHENEY, YOU KNOW, REPRESENTING THE OLD REPUBLICAN PARTY, I GUESS YOU WOULD SAY. >> WELL, HE'S CLEARLY THE OLD GUARD, THE GUARD, YOU KNOW, THE COUNTRY CLUB REPUBLICANS THAT DON'T SUPPORT DONALD TRUMP BECAUSE HE'S FOR WHAT WE USED TO CALL THE BLUE DOG DEMOCRATS, THE HE CAN TRADITIONS AND THE PLUMBERS AND THE WORKERS WHO GO OUT EVERY DAY TO EARN A LIVING WHOSE JOBS ARE BEING DECIMATED BY ILLEGAL ALIENS COMING ACROSS THE BORDER, SOME SAY AS MANY AS 20 MILLION. WE KNOW AT LEAST 100 PEOPLE ON THE TERROR WATCH LIST HAVE COME THROUGH THIS COUNTRY. HEIR TAKING JOBS FROM THESE PEOPLE, AND I DON'T REALLY CARE WHAT DICK CHENEY SAYS. WE SAW WHAT HAPPENED TO LIZ CHENEY IN HER LAST ELECTION, SHE WAS ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED. THE PEOPLE SAID YOU DON'T REPRESENT US ANYMORE. THEY'RE BITTER, ANGRY AND LIVING IN THE PAST. HOWARD: YOUR CAMPAIGN RAISED $130 TOMILLION LAST MONTH, PRETTY IMPRESSIVE, BUT THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN TRIPLED THAT WITH $361 MILLION. DOESN'T THAT A PUT YOU AT A SERIOUS DISADVANTAGE WHEN IT COMES TO TO ORGANIZING AND THE GROUND GAME? >> HOWIE, WHAT WE HAVE IS WE'VE GOT AN AMAZING CAMPAIGN RIGHT NOW. WE'VE GOT A FANTASTIC GROUND GAME. I'VE REVIEWED IT, I'VE LOOKED AT IT, I FEEL VERY GOOD ABOUT WHERE WE ARE. MORE THAN THAT, WE KNOW THAT THESE UNIONS THAT TRADITIONALLY TURN THEIR VOTERS OUT FOR THE DEMOCRATS OTHER THAN MAYBE THE TEACHERS YEE UNION HAVE NO UNIT ANYMORE BECAUSE THE RANK AND FILE ARE WITH DONALD TRUMP. THEY WANT THEIR JOBS PROTECTED, THEY WANT THEIR JOBS TO CONTINUE TO GROW, TWHAIRNLGS TO CONTINUE TO GROW, AND HAY KNOW THE ONLY WAY TO DO THAT AND IF DONALD TRUMP IS ELECTED PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. SO THE TRADITIONAL TURNOUT MODEL THAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE USED WHICH ARE THE THE BIG UNIONS TURNING THEIR VOTERS OUT, THE RANK AND FILE ARE NO LONGER WITH THEM. WE FEEL VERY GOOD ABOUT WHERE WE ARE. WE ALSO KNOW THAT MOST OF THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA'S TO GOING TO CONTINUE TO HYPE UP THE KAMALA HARRIS-TIM WALZ CAMPAIGN. THEY WANT TO TELL EVERYONE HOW SHE'S A SAVIOR. HOWIE, IS SHE COMPLICIT OR WAS SHE JUST NAIVE TO TO WHAT WAS GOING ON DURING JOE BIDEN'S THREE AND A HALF YEARS OF MENTAL HEALTH DECLINE? IT'S TIME TO HOLD HER ACCOUNTABLE FOR IT. I FEEL VERY GOOD ABOUT WHERE WE ARE, AND HISTORICALLY SPEAKING FROM STRICTLY EMPIRICAL DATA POINT, WE ARE IN THE BEST POSITION DONALD TRUMP HAS EVER BEEN IN FROM THE PUBLIC POLLS TO BE SUCCESSFUL COME NOVEMBER. HOWARD: IT'S A VERY TIGHT RACE. EVEN SOME REPUBLICANS WHO SUPPORT TRUMP, COREY, SAY HE NEEDS TO BE MORE DISCIPLINED, STOP CALLING HARRIS DUMB OR WANDERING OFF AT RALLIES TALKING ABOUT SHARKS. YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN SORT OF THE LET TRUMP BE TRUMP CAMP. WHAT DO YOU THINK -- >> LOOK, I DON'T THINK WE HAVE TIME. HOWIE, WE JUST DON'T HAVE TIME FOR POLITICAL CENTNESS. WE LITERALLY HAVE A -- CORRECTNESS. WE HAVE A WOMAN AND AN ADMINISTRATION DESTROYING THIS COUNTRY, AND IF WE HAVE ANOTHER FOUR YEARS ANYTHING SIMILAR TO THE BIDEN-HARRIS ADMINISTRATION, WE'LL HAVE 20 THE MILLION MORE ILLEGALS POURING INTO THIS COUNTRY, GAS PRICES THAT ARE PROBABLY 80 CENTS MORE A GALLON, ENERGY KANSASS WE CAN'T SUSTAIN -- COSTS WE CAN'T SUSTAIN, AND EVERY AMERICAN WILL SUFFER UNDER IT. WE'VE GOT A VERY SHORT WINDOW, ABOUT 58 DAYS LEFT IN THIS CAMPAIGN BEFORE THE VOTING ENDS, AND WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYBODY WHO'S CONCERNED ABOUT THE FUTURE OF THIS COUNTRY AND OUR ALLIES AROUND THE WORLD WILL RESPECT US US ONCE AGAIN IF DONALD TRUMP IS THE PRESIDENT AND OUR ENEMIES WILL FEAR US. THAT'S NOT THE CASE RIGHT NOW. WE'RE A LAUGHING STOCK, AND IT'S THE TIME TO GET BACK TO BUSINESS. HOWARD: COREY, I'M COMING UP ON A BREAK, BUT KAMALA HARRIS AND THE DEMOCRATS KEEP WARNING ABOUT PROJECT 2025 THE, THE HERITAGE PROJECT, EVEN HOE DONALD TRUMP SAYS HE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. IT IS STAFFED BY MEMBERS, MANY OF HIS FORMER STAFF THERES, AND FOUND PARTS OF IT ABYSMAL. YET THAT SEEMS TO BE A BIG TALKING POINT FOR THE DEMS. >> WELL, IT'S BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO TALK ABOUT. WHAT THEY DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT WHICH IS CAP, THE CENTER FOR AMERICAN PROGRESS P63 MEMBERS OF THAT ORGANIZATION INSIDE THE BIDEN-HARRIS ADMINISTRATION. THEY ARE FOR IF TAXPAYER-FUNDED REPARATIONS. THEY ARE FOR SOME OF THE MOST EXTREME SURGERIES PARTICULARLY AS IT COMES TO TRANSGENDER SURGERIES FOR CHILDREN, NOT NOTIFYING THEIR PARENTS. WHEN DOES THE BIDEN -- AND KAMALA HARRIS HAS SAID THAT THE CEO OF THAT A ORGANIZATION IS PHENOMENAL, THE BEST, HEIR DOING GREAT WORKS. DONALD TRUMP HAS DISAVOWED MiG TO DO WITH PROJECT 2025, BUT NO ONE'S HOLDING THE HARRIS, WALZ, BIDEN TEAM ACCOUNT FOR THEIR SUPPORT OF THE CAP GUYS WHO WANT TO USE TAXPAYER-FUNDED REPARATIONS AND WANT TO THE MAKE SURE THAT CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 112 CAN HAVE SEX CHANGE -- 12 CAN HAVE SEX CHANG
