WASHINGTON WEEK
WITH GWEN IFEL
FRIDAY, AUGUST 19 @ 9:00PM
Donald Trump tried something new Thursday: he expressed “regret” for some of his past statements that have “caused personal pain.” The change came just days after Trump announced a major campaign shakeup and brought in Stephen Bannon from the conservative news site Breitbart and promoted veteran GOP pollster Kellyanne Conway to campaign manager. Their first task will be to turn around Trump’s slipping poll numbers, but with less than three months to Election Day, can the new leadership team right the ship? The Republican nominee will travel to flood-ravaged Baton Rouge to tour the damage, and earlier this week he announced a new plan of “extreme vetting” for Muslim immigrants to the United States to stop the spread of ISIS.
