"The campaign told supporters in an email 'the speech (Trump) was planning on giving is still being modified.' Still, the Republican presidential nominee will attend a big-dollar fundraiser in Aspen that includes the option for a VIP meeting with Trump for donors who contribute $25,000 or more."

Issue position and have it not indicate a complete flip flop. See, he was influenced by the group he met with, next week he will meet with his klan base and all will be out the door.

He needs to show some degree of compassion to appeal to the overall electorate without pissing of his base.
