Has it suddenly dawned on Mr Trump that you really can't have your cake and eat it? That you can't just abuse and annoy your way to the presidency? After plummeting numbers in the polls these few weeks and possibly advice from his new campaign team, he has bowed to the pressure that maybe not all things are meant to be said. Like a proverb goes,
"Not everything the eyes see, should the mouth allow itself to say!"

Yesterday, in a rally in Charlotte, North Carolina, Donald Trump confessed to having said a lot of stuff and I quote
"Sometimes, in the heat of debate and speaking on a multitude of issues, you don't choose the right words or you say the wrong thing. I have done that, and I regret it, particularly where it may have caused personal pain. Too much is at stake for us to be consumed with these issues."
Is this the new Donald Trump? Or the real one? Is he simply pandering to the media and the American public just to target emotional votes? Or do we just need to wait a few more days before the Return of The Trump?
In my opinion, I feel that the saying "a leopard can't change its spots" applies wholly in this situation. Donald Trump is just unable to hold out with this apologies. He simply can't help himself! He is a business man and he takes advantage of opportunities, good or bad to his advantage. The moment he realized a section of the American people liked his rhetoric and warmed up to the delivery of this unguarded and a times reckless utterances, he decided to milk it for all its worth.
People now seem to be seeing beyond this rhetoric and are probably beginning to see that there is nothing there, and that he is too divisive. Whatever the case may be, whether the leopard can really change its spot, that is yet to be seen, but for now, we can only hope that the lessons he is beginning to take on being civil, stick!
