and,d, if a lot depends on the party's nominee becacause the parts s nominee sets the t tone for the e party. but i woultatake issue with the idea thahat donald trump could lou dobbs.s. donald trump appears r ready to pivot to more presidential dememeanor and to fococus on t general election a and the demomocrat's presumptive nomine the republicann frontnt runner tellingg aown hall meeting today y he's going to act so presidential ththat, quote, you willll be t bod, end quote. and trump is so committed too making that pivot, that change, he's now practicingg delivering at least some of his speeches with the helpp of teleprompter a tool that presisident obama, course, relies on constantlyly, but a t tool that trurump has u as far as i know,, only once ovr the past ten momonths.. the c change in trumpmp comes a

builds out his campaign team brbringing on more experiencnce campaign l leaders and amongng trump cvention manager pauau manafo manafort. manafort will be guest tonight f fro hollywood florida. that's where r replilican natiol commmmite officials have been wrangling over whether t to chae rules that trurumpays a are rigd against him. >> politics is a a very didirt dirty dishonest business, folks, and i have never s seen anythin like it,, and w we' running now for office and it's a rigged deal. this whole thing with delegates is rigggged it's a a rig. wher i win louisiaiana and i dot get as many delegates as some guy thatlost? >> the nest frankn and marshall college pollhows trump on t 40% suppt, that's 14 points ahead of tedcruz, and

ngressman from penylvania lieu barlrletta and marino -- well, the two congressm are leadin the effort to line up ump supporterso be eleed as delegates. 54 of the saf 71 delegates will be unbound, not pleed to supportt anyone that emerges fro this primary tuesday, it's quite a system and j part of what primary season.tu in this joining us now is the t trump campaign official, he isis the conventition managege strategis paul manafofort. paul a veteran repepublican strategi strategist, h he's worked with presidents ford, reagan, bushh and joining us from hollywood, floridida, i should say the sit of the rnc spring meeting. it i is great to have you on th showow. i k kno that youu and rick w wi talked t to the rnc members.s. do you f feel you were succeces

in conveying the messasages tha you wanteded? >> well, d donald trump thoughtt was important becausese he coul not attend thihis week dueue to fact thahat he'sut t there cacampaigningn the primamaries that t the campaign have a presence here too answer any questions the rnc membe have and to also let them k know tha as far as donald trumpp is concerned, y you know, as hee becomemes the p presumpti nomin of the party h he'sooking to work with ththe rnrnc and workk the o other leaders of f the st parties to beginin to put togetr the framework foror what will ba united r republican effort in t fall. >> and, paul, the -- working with the rnc, so much publi what would we say acrimony bebetween the rnc, the man that will be leading the conventitio paulryan, andnd donald trumpf courseeieing extremely critical of the primary -- primary system, at leastanany of the primaries i thiscountry. is that being smoothed over?

is that prorocess under way? isis there a comingg together, you will, between dononald trum an t the rnc? >> i believe theres a coming together, yes, and really a lot of the acrimonony you cal it eally a lot of misundstanding. naldmp always understood as the nominee of th republican party held be working with republican natiolcommittee, theenator y'a cign cotee,gressional coittee rgd other instions because as lder of the party his goal isot only to ee likt himself but ensure a republican majoritity the congresess and help elect governors and other downstream members as well. >> i want to turn to -- it soununde though -- as though tht there was a pledge of deeper coopoperation certainly than the hass been. thatat may not bee a a terrific amount, but a pledge of a a traditional relationshihip betwn thee nominee and the rnc

including fundraising, organization,, campaigning for candididates. is thahat a faiair -- fairr statemenent? >> donald trumpp has been talkig to the cirman of th party over the course of the last few weeks a and has had v very good phone calls a recently as yeyesterdaday and he has made i clear that he's lookingorward to working withh him to pull th party gegethther. as far ass he's concerned as he becomemes the presumpveve nomin he undererstands that the chairn of the p party hasas an responsibility really to w worko help bring the unity a as well together w with trump. and so this s is -- it's a process, it'ss an ongogoing procesess, we're getting cloloso this point where he will bee th presumptive nominee and t then e nomin nominee. we belieieve that there will no be a conteststed conveventn in cleveleland and we don't want t wait until clevelandnd to start puingg together the apparatus necessary to run a uninited republican nomination in ththe fall. >> y you have two candidates ou

there, governor kasich with very feww delegates, about 300 point behind - delegates behind your candndidate is of course ted c. ted cruz is -- if anything has raised t the intensity of his attacks on donald trtrump. yourur thoughtss about that ande appropriat r response as even t candidatate is talalking aboutug more presidential in n the facef such -- such attacks. >> well, he is raising t the lel of attacack becausese he's losi and he knows he's losing andnd he's trying t narrative but he's fafailing. we had a great day in newew y y on tuesday, we will h have anotr grgreat day on t tuesday in th northeast statess where we expet to do very well in pennsylvania, rhrhode island, delaware, marylaland, connecticut. so cruz i is t trying to d stra from what'soing ony making a

lott of noise. the noise is not goioing to afft the incncreased difference in n vote count between trump and cruzuzoth on total votes received as wewell as on delegates. we will have another goo d day n tuesday and it't's going to gets closer to the magic number. . >> you are stitill condedent yo can hit somethingng -- 1,1,23 t numbers have beenen reported a little higher than that because of internal memorandnda, but th you can hit 1,237,say, by june 7thth? >> we think it't's critical f the republican party to come totogether borore july. if w we are f fighting in july, the cventioion is fractured i july, then our chanceses of winning in n novovember will be dramaticallyly impacted. frfrom our standpoint we e are only one who can n nominated on the first ballot a and we think that the voters in the republican party are indicating where they want to bebe you have 66% of republicans sayinghahat the leaeader in tot votes and delegatates should be the nomiminee. that's alreadydy finished..

we knoww who is going to finish fifirst in both o of those categories. so n now is the time t to start healaling process with thehe leadership of the party, now is the time for thehe trump organization and mr. trump has totold us this, toegino rch out to republicann groups, to begigin with bring together allf the elements of the campaign structures so that we can merge the presisidentl campaign withh the committeeee campaigns. >> and those efforts are going to intntensify in the days ahea? >> absolutetely. >> all right.t. paul manafort, thanks for taking the time. i know you've had a busy, b bus day. thanks so much. >> thank youou very much. a huge hometown victory moves ump c closer to t the prpresidential nomination. . >> thank you, everybodody, and thank you, new york. we love new york. we love new york. thank you very mumuch, everybod. thanank you. >> ed rollins, tammy bruce and pat buchanan among our guests tonight. they're cocong up.

a few thoughts now onn the games o at least somee of the games being played by republican leaders and the gop estatablisent. speaker pauaul ryan whoho i rea like, i think he isis aery likeable fellow, he justt happes to belong in both camamps and seems u unable these dayays to control himself.f. ry infuriatingng house repupublicans with his spendini bill thatt would raise the deficit, offending m many by reachingng deals with president obama before reachinin deals wih gop house members or even letting t them know what's goin on.. and then injecting himself into

presidential politics, attttackg donald trump and then making his first latee night tv appeararan and playing cute with steven colbert. >>etet me say it in clear english. no. > okay. how about clear germrman? >> clear russian. [ speaking foforeign language ] > wow, you seem to know a lo of foreign languages, that kind of expererience will comenn hany if you decide to accep the repupublblican nomiminanation. >> hisatate sw appeaearance not a p particurly bright moveyy the speakerhoho is annoying just about everybody thehese days except of coursese mr. obama an thedemocrats. an's appeararance certainly didn help him offset his graph ss deficit. some might be forgiven thinking the s speaker appearina triefl silly n a the speer seems alwlways to be lacking a sense of proportio a as y yestey

understand there is a necessily at some point to t some of these conessional insiders on his teamm for the delegate purposes and tngs that willappen at the convention, b look, when he makesit, she has been a part of the problem, iring the solutions, i'm an outsider at's the stronge narrative for trump. >> chris, your reaction >> you kn, the rncs in an imssible situation ts year, i don't think there is winning pathor the and if it continues to appear thatonald trump is at odds with the rnc i agre with eboni that actually helps donald trumpecause they represent of course the establishment and he doe not. so if they are at logger heads, go for him, bad for the rnc. i n't think there is aay out forthem. they should not cnge the rules, they were wise to not start changing the rulesnow, that wouldn' have passed the sml test, that wld have been very bad forfor them. they should ctinue to not change the rules. >> i agree with youf going into the wee before the convenon suddenly they are taking strong look at

to change uphe routine a bit and become more aleast in some respects tditionally presesenti. >> and t chris' p poi that's where he has more leverage, nald trump. just finish strong, don't cow tail,inis strgndnd make them take the bitterill of donald ump. don't do i the other way around. i don't think any of us he the slightest concern in that rerd. i thinkt is -- withed cruz seem tgo step u his attacks on trump since he got walloped in new york, i think it is wel established is a little early yet. alwaysreat to haveou guys an, as here. >> thks, lou. > x games gold medalist cently setting a new world record. you have to see it. tom wallish completinghe longest rl slide onkis successfully going down a railor 424 feet, e previous recordas 5, at was a year oldld record.

lou. >>et's start by the victory by donald trump in new york, paul manafo talking about 1,400 i theirprojection i wouldn'tuggest there's any marketin in at, but do u think that's a reastic numb? >> thatounds to me like little bit o sigh war, lou, it a signal to allhe delegates saying in effect, look, fellas, get aboard this train iseaving the station and make sure y're on it. but i do thk that the possibility exists that dald trump could take this thing prty handily on the fst ballot, but 1,400 snds a ttle bit out of the range for me. >> 1,400 or 1, youknow, these stillecome workae numbs. les turn if wcan to th party itlf. i haveev seen the pty -- andd i hav covedonventions fr '76 forward - i have never seen a party take on their front

runner t way the elites o of the gop he taken on dond trump. have you? >> no, iavenot. d to a degreree some othe elites i 64 out at the palace did this when goldwat was taken and his agents were taking th party away from em. i ink the same thingbtains he, lou. ese elitesee in trump run for the nominion and a succesul r really tir eclipse. hickaking over the party. him moving o a newirection on trade deals, him securing the boers and no amnesty. and even in the intervention all overhe world, these military interventions which man of the neo con favor the may be no more. i think they allll s their agenda, they all see their rice bowls broken and the agenda nceded. >> whenou mentioned the neo cons, i mean,he strong -- the surprise here to me the stroest surprise of all has

be the evangelical, the reliousonservatives in this couny who are embracing dond trump even a the neo cons react in fear and rejectiont the anticipation of a trump enda, others arembracing and a new lance is being, if you will, projected by the trump candid candidy. >> i think thevangelicals a showing a measure of sophisticationhe. look,veryone a aees the untry is in rl trouble, trump, whater you say, he's d the diana chl, energy aut him and he's going toeal with the things. i think what they're saying s look, we tst trump notot because we believe he is a social conserva or evangelical christian, bute think he will do what is inis interest and the partynterest and we believe himhene says hwill putscalia-type fellas on the supreme court. so i think it's a sophiicated responsesen the pt of e evgelicals. you talked in your mos rece cololumnbout the gop

risking suicidehere. do you believe the elites are going to at ast at some point come to theirenses and say -- and acknoedge tront runner and begin aealing process and move toward unity? >> i thi the elites arelmost out of th game, lou. think the real challenge and the oy chaenge to trump comes from cruz. bu i will say this, if this party gathe in cleveland a ump has t most vicictories and the mt states and theost delegates and millions more votes tha anyone else and the biggtrowds ever and t part thenurns and says, n we present to america our winner ournominee, ted cruz, i think that is really not edible for the party to say at that point. but i think the elites reallyy they have been feebleere in washgton, d.c. they seem to have n control, we talk about the esblishment, it's been

shoved aside in a battle ben trump and cruz and i don know at cz is saying, but he's never seed to m to have been ally a beloved figur upn capitol hi. >> that is what the call aind description for the senorn catol hill. let me turn, pat -- re. >> --o the agenda. you have paul ryan thespeaker, who will beunning the convention as i traditional, but i have never seen a speaker be both -- interjecthimself into the race, attack a candidate and simultaneously say he is gng to p forrd an agenda that wi compete wit thatf the nonee. this is unheard of, especially when that nominee is bringingn millions and millions of people into the ten tt has bee woefully, woefully attend over the crs of the two previous election cycles. >> but you are rig abobout what trumpas done in tms -- he s brought people into the

republican primaries by the millns and millio, they have ha the largest turnout i think they hav ever had in any kind of pmaries in state aer state. >> correct. >> i wouldeally admonhed paul ryano take aook at one exple. back in 1964 when goldwater won the nomination, rockefellernd romney and scranton they all cut himood-bye and good luck. two people went outor goldwater a overhe country that year, richard nixon a ronald rean and the future belonged to themor standing by someone the knew was going down to defeat in a horribleefeat an being there beside him. if i we paul ryan and he's viously got a futur in the rty i would sa look, i'm goin t support the nomin for this pty and go out andork for himecause i'm the lder of the forces on capitol hill. >> pat, great to have you here. come back so. always good to talk with h you. >> gooood to talk to you,u, my friend. >> pat bubuchanan. thanknks foror joining us toninight. goodnight fromom new york.
