Lewandowski, who has remained an informal Trump adviser since his first campaign, is being brought on to advise the campaign’s senior leadership team, according to a person familiar with the move and granted anonymity to speak freely.
He joins several other former Trump aides who will play similar roles.
The staffing additions come as Trump has fallen behind Vice President Kamala Harris in fundraising and some swing state polling. Some Republicans have grown concerned about Trump’s standing in the race, saying he has struggled to find a consistent line of attack against Harris.
In 2021, Lewandowski was removed from a top position in a Pro-Trump super PAC after he was accused by the wife of a donor to the former president, Trashelle Odom, of making unwanted sexual advances towards her at a charity dinner in Las Vegas.
Following the Las Vegas incident, a spokesperson for the former president said “Trump World” was no longer associated with Lewandowski. But Trump has long remained loyal to Lewandowski and has kept him in the fold.
Lewandowski played a role at the 2024 Republican National Convention and has also consulted for the Republican National Committee.

Corey Lewandowski is an idiot and an embarrassment, known mostly for drunkenly groping female donors, assaulting female reporters, and having affairs with fellow staffers. The 2016 campaign only took off after he was fired

Also wild to think Lewandowski couldn’t win a floor vote for a leadership spot in the New Hampshire GOP at the outset of the primary, now he’s here.
He’s been lurking in the wings this whole time, then he found his moment. Little to no concern around his own personal baggage..
