Longtime Trump adviser, Corey Lewandowski says the former President will play a key role in Republican politics moving forward, especially in next year’s midterms election. The former campaign adviser also noted that Trump’s support will reach Republicans who have challenged him in the past. Lewandowski also quashed rumors that Trump plans to splinter from the Republican Party and begin his.
Fox News reports:
“The president continues to have enormous support and approval among Republican primary voters. He continues to have hundreds of millions of dollars in his campaign account, which he can utilize. And he will continue to be actively involved in recruiting candidates and holding elected officials accountable for their votes,” Corey Lewandowski told Fox News on Thursday.
Lewandowski, who managed Trump’s 2016 presidential primary campaign and served as a top adviser on the 2020 reelection effort, also shot down suggestions that the former president would form a splinter party, saying “I don’t think the president has any interest in being part of a third party.”

Lewandowski said that Trump would be involved in supporting primary challenges against some of the 10 Republicans who voted to impeach him.
“They will all get primary challenges in my opinion,” Lewandowski said. “I don’t know at what level the president’s going to weigh in on each of those races, but I think he will be involved in a number of them.”
Many are already speculating that Trump will make another White House run in four years but the former president hasn’t confirmed the rumors. Within the Republican Party, Trump still has millions of supporters across the country despite a dip in support following the Capitol riot.
