Former White House adviser Kellyanne Conway joined the chorus of GOP strategists who want former President Donald Trump to change his tone on the campaign trail.
Conway told Fox Business anchor Larry Kudlow during an interview on Monday that her former boss needs to adapt his rhetoric to produce a “winning formula” against Vice President Kamala Harris.
“The winning formula for President Trump is very plain to see,” Conway proclaimed. “It’s fewer insults, more insights, and that policy contrast.”
The GOP strategist worked closely with Trump for three years before retiring from her role as counselor to the president in August 2020.
If President Trump would just contrast the policies, he’ll win!” Conway added. “Because he has a 2-to-1 advantage over Biden-Harris on the economy and inflation, on the border, on Israel and Hamas, on the key issues that are important to people.”

Conway isn’t the only GOP strategist worried that Trump’s stabs on Harris could detract from his presidential ambitions.
Republican pollster Frank Luntz is among others who have suggested Trump’s “persona” is hurting his campaign.
*** Conway was rumored to have had a fallout with Trump insiders after the former president picked Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) to be his running mate. Over a dozen MAGA insiders allegedly accused the former White House counselor of fueling negative press about Vance after the Ohio Republican was launched as Trump’s No. 2.
However, the ex-White House adviser planted herself firmly in the Trump camp during her interview with Kudlow. Deriding Harris for being “afraid” to speak to the media, Conway touted Trump’s 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and claimed the GOP leader had “the best opportunity” to win the 2024 presidential election.

Good to see so many experts on how to run a campaign.
Her idiot husband is the most insulting political pundit either right wing or left wing ever.
I have no respect for Kelleyanne as she’s still married to that jerk.
Economy, inflation, illegals, crime, etc.
She did a damned good job for Trump in 2016, and I think her adivice is politically sound.
May your chains set lightly upon you, Ms. Conway.
Agree
He should be running away with this.
The issues are waaaaaaaayyy on his side.
I have an idea, why not have the next Trump-Musk interview on X Space next week?
Thursday is a good day.
Advice like that is privately given. Not ol’ snaggle tooth Kelly. She blabs it to everyone for the news cycle. I’m thinking the GOP has promises from Dems to let Dems beat Trump. No?
She is correct.
The main media would like nothing more than to focus only on Trump’s insults, nicknames and jokes instead of reporting on his policy plans, meant to rescue and repair America from Uncle Joe’s Slash, Butcher and Burn methods we now live under.
I am not a big fan of Kelly Ann Conway, but making the election a choice of four more years of the same on steroids Low wagers, high inflation, world turmoil, illegals taking welfare benefits away from citizens or Go Back Better to when peace in the world, great pay in relationship to inflation, and affordable housing. That choice Trump wins big. Trump verse Kamala close because media builds her up and tears Trump down.
How do you know he’s not running away with it when the media lies continually. Last night’s interview generated over billion views.
They are divorced.
Kellyanne is right.
Insults and name-calling against Hillary never worked, and Hillary became president because of that.
She is more than correct. As you said.
She has become a Ukraine lobbyist—you just can’t slimier than that.
Trump, act more like a politician then you can win! Meh, if that’s what the country wants then there are no shortages of politicians to choose from. Trump doesn’t really do any personal attacks. Is calling her a low IQ person a personal attack? Should he not say it because it seems personal? If suburban moms want to gut the country because he won’t follow their lead well the country is going to be done with. You can have 4 or 8 years of Kama Kamelon and then you can fight to get a Mitt Romney type in; maybe the eye patch guy.
Regardless, why take any chances stick to the damn issues
