Everyone assumed that the Breitbart additions meant Trump was going to go full on alt-right, instead he's apologizing for hurting people and softening his immigration stance. What's going on?

Until we figure that out, we should shut down Trump's campaign.

Steve Bannon has never actually run a campaign, so it'll take him some time before he starts wielding his influence. Kellyanne Conway is the one making the decisions right now, but we'll see how long that lasts (see Manafort).

It is odd.

But it's also only been a week.

Still erratic as all hell, throwing everything at the wall to see what will stick. Only a matter of time until he devolves into prime Trump.

Yeah, we've got months to go yet.  I don't believe this is the Trump campaign's final form.

Also, moderate compared to what? It's literally just the same old Trump who hasn't lashed out yet

Compared to himself, of course.

It's the same Trump. Just with vaguer positions and an attractive white blonde speaking for him instead of Manafort

On a similar note, hasn't Trump recently said he wants his campaign to follow this new approach, I heard a bit of it on CNN earlier.

He hasn't really changed, he is just pandering to white republicans who are uneasy with the blatant racism.

It's all a facade. Donald will inevitably confront a situation in which he's unable to control his base emotional instincts, and, well, it'll be Khan all over again.
