From the August 31 edition of CNN's CNN Tonight with Don Lemon:
DON LEMON (HOST): Corey, I think you believe that the speech was effective, but what do you -- how do you respond to the rest of the panel saying he did not expand the base, this was probably to strengthen his core base that he already has? Do you agree?
COREY LEWANDOWSKI: Look, I think Donald Trump's message tonight was the message that he started with back on June of 2015, which was “America First.” That's what he believes, and what he is playing to -- and if you look at the polling data, he's got about an 18 point lead in the demographic of white males who are voting in this election.
They have a high propensity of voting, and so he's got about an 18 point lead on Hillary Clinton in that particular demographic. This speech is clearly geared at those individuals right now, to make sure they are there, he has locked them in for the election.
And now he is going to have to go and expand, there is no question about it, but this speech right here, “America First” is something that has got him to this point, and he's doubled down on it tonight.
