He'll talk loud, he'll talk over Hillary, and he'll yell "email!", "Benghazi", and "crooked foundation".

To all but party insiders, it was narcolepsy all along

out of view of the media.

appearance and emptiness

He's a bull in a china shop whose campaign staff is desperately trying to avoid Trump saying something stupid or inflammatory by trying to manage the discourse.

Bear in mind, this is a Q&A so there won't be a teleprompter. He'll be told the "recommended" answer, with no assurance that he'll answer correctly.

Donald J. Trump is scheduled to make a highly anticipated visit to an African-American church in Detroit on Saturday, the first such visit of his campaign. There, he will participate in a question-and-answer session conducted by Bishop Wayne T. Jackson of the church, Great Faith Ministries International.

Given the importance of the visit, the Trump team went so far as to script Mr. Trump’s answers to Bishop Jackson’s questions, which were submitted in advance. After this article was published on Thursday night, a campaign official said that Mr. Trump would also speak to the church’s congregation and then tour some neighborhoods with Ben Carson, a former presidential candidate and Detroit native.

Below are excerpts from a draft of the script that was obtained by The New York Times.

Mr. Trump there is racial divide in our country and it is evident that the tension is boiling over. Case and point Reverend Pinckney in South Carolina was gunned down when a white young man came into their Bible Study and slaughtered the Reverend and eight other individuals because he wanted to start a race war. What would your administration do to bring down the racial tension that is in our Country? In the Bible Jesus said that a house divided cannot stand.

Our best hope for erasing racial tensions in America is to work toward a color-blind society. In business, we hire, retain and award based on merit. In society, however, we have divisions that can only be eliminated if we have equal opportunity and then equal access to programs and institutions that will lift all people in the country. We have to reform our tax system so that we can spur economic growth for the long haul. We have to have stronger enforcement of immigration laws. We have to renegotiate our trade deals so that we can bring advantage back to the American workforce. But perhaps most important is that we must provide equal opportunity for a quality education for all Americans. The higher the educational attainment, the greater the likelihood one can climb the economic ladder. We must bring school choice programs to our cities and we must get rid of Common Core. We must make sure that access, affordability and accountability are brought into our higher education system. Without a focus on educational outcomes for every American, we will perpetuate the permanent underclass that progressive policies have sustained. Republicans like me need to have the courage to speak the truth about where we are and what has to be done. We have to have the courage to go into communities and work with everyone there to make sure that our schools are good and that our children have access to the whatever educational situation they may need. This is not something one person can do, but it is something that we can do together.............................
