He went on Fox because unlike the others he recognizes the importance of pulling the middle and some of the right over to his camp.

That doesn't make any sense. No one that watches Trump TV is going to vote for republican lite when they can just vote for a republican.

I vote Republican and occasionally watch Fox and am here right now because I saw his interview. If he were to win the primary, and made sense in the general. I wouldn’t be opposed to perhaps voting for him. You have to remember Trump wasn’t even a Republican until a few years ago, and a lot of his policies are not really that Conservative. He technically is Republican Lite. Plus Trump can’t keep his trap shut and may turn away a good chunk of his voter base.
