Of course he is. You have as good of a chance surviving a live cremation as you do finding something Trump is sincere and consistent about.

This is a start, but he seems entirely uninterested in softening his "stance" toward Latinos, which is what's really costing him the election right now.

The question is, will any of this make a difference? He didn't just slightly tick them off. They are literally protesting/rioting at his events now. There is no way I can see him winning back Muslims or Hispanics. His charm offensive may get him like, what, a 1% boost come election day? If that.

As for his ideology, well, as far as I can tell it is "Trump ideology" - Do or say anything to get what you want, no matter how shameful or offensive it is.

He's already pointed out many times that illegal immigrants can come back with the right documentation under his proposal. Its clear what direction he's going in.

No doubt, but to be sure, this sort of triangulation is designed not to court those voters but rather white Republicans who are uncomfortable voting for a racist.  Although, looking at the polling, there don't seem to be really be that many of them.

For a second I read this as Trump having too soft a stance on Muslims.

I wouldn't be surprised if some people thought he was too soft on Muslims.

We know how good our last president with Alzheimer's was. He was a total disaster, but the right worships him anyway.

But he says what he wants!

The pathetic news media won't hold him accountable for any of his 100 flip flops, though, because they're afraid of what he'll do to them. He's worse than Mitt Romney.

So much for being the watchdog and the fourth estate.
