Trump adviser vows billionaire will 'soften' on Muslim ban

But part of the campaign’s upcoming strategy includes fine-tuning previously made platforms and statements, Manafort said,

And on one of his most controversial, the temporary ban on Muslims, Manafort hinted at a Trump softening.

“He’s already started moderating on that,” Manafort told the Huffington Post. “He operates by starting the conversation at the outer edges and then brings it back towards the middle. Within his comfort zone, he’ll soften it some more. He’ll still end up outside of the norm, but in line with what the American people are thinking.”

Look, the ONLY reason I am voting for Trump is because he said he would ban muslims, build a wall and throw the illegals out so fast it would "make my head spin." If he's going to soften, "evolve," and "fine-tune," then he's no better than all the other freaks. He'd better straighten up and fly right.

His position was always somewhat "soft." Ban until we get a handle on it. Similar to the wall. He's not trying to stop immigration, he is trying to stop illegal immigration.

-- If he's going to soften, "evolve," and "fine-tune," then he's no better than all the other freaks. --

Vote for Hillary then, LOL.

It depends on what “softens” turns out to mean. I personally do not think Islam has a place in America, in any form or shape, because I do not believe it to be a true religion. It is either a cult, or more likely a form of government, and an extremely evil form at that.

A “virtual” border wall, a “softened” travel ban... what next?

"In an interview with the Huffington Post, Manafort first assured Trump as going to win – “unless we, meaning people like me, screw it up,” he said.

Guess what, slugger? You just screwed up

I think there’s a term for this

Honestly, there is no reason a single one fo them has to be here. They bring NOTHING to the table. We are not strengthened or bettered by having a single muslim man, woman or child here. Not. A. Single. One.

His initial position IS what the American people are thinking, you idiot.

Now fire yourself and get the hell out of town.

Every time I see a picture of Manafort I think he should be hosting a game show on TV somewhere.

How soft can he get without you losing your faith in him?

Trump’s bold, non politically correct security stances were what made me change parties to support him in Maryland’s primary. This is not great news to wake up to and I PRAY Manafort is just posturing to attract more General Election votes. Trump cannot afford to discourage maximum GOP turnout and end up losing like McCain and Mittens.
I fully intend to vote again for Trump in November and PRAY that his boasts of us begging him to stop winning so much don’t prove to be pipe dreams (empty promises). Trump’s blunt, tell-it-like-it-is style strikes me as authentic and I will do my best to give him the benefit of any doubt for now!!!

Mamafort news to STFU and be on the receiving end of Trump’s favorite phrase: “You’re fired.”
