Speculation of whether Trump will tone it down, will he?

Reince on
What is the Real DJT?
RP: a little bit of truth at every angle; play both sides of Trump being Trump and his advisers understanding pivot; says we'll see
Shows HRC ad, showing her pivot to general election
RP: says RNC is ready for general as well; says there were 2 soldiers from Benghazi at Florida meeting, says HRC was a terrible sec. of state
IS party really unifying? Play clip on Charles Koch
RP: it'll be close; Charles tries to appear non-partisan; not that much intersection between RNC and the Kochs
Q: Elected not going to convention?
A: I'm not sure I saw those people at pass conventions
Tapper: McCain was your nominee
A: it's up to the individual whether they attend
Q: how concerned are you about a third party nom?
A: no one is serious about that; it's a dumb idea (a nothing-burger)
Q: DJT on abortion exceptions, building a wall with MEX; are you amenable to changing the platform?
A: DJT needs to make sure he has delegates on the platform committee; anticipates that the platform will stay the same

Panel

Kristol: it's definitely not too late for a third party candidate
Katrina Vanden Heuval: media needs to hold DJT to accountable for his words
Granholm: trump is etch a sketching his way to the presidency
Panel seems to agree that standards are different for Donald Trump
KVH: a party cannot find its salvation in a general
GS: is the base of the party to come around Trump?
Navarro: For any one of the candidates will have a challenging time
Kristol: not sure that past GOP presidential candidates would support trump
KVH: we need to be ensuring ballot access
