Donald Trump's campaign manager says he'd 'never want to change Donald Trump'
Much has been made about Donald Trump's team trying to make him act "more presidential," but campaign manager Corey Lewandowski said he wouldn't ask his boss to do anything differently.
"I'd never want to change Donald Trump," he told NBC's Katy Tur Tuesday night. Trump swept all five Republican primaries, and Lewandowski said that's proof his "message of 'Make America Great Again' resonates in the northeast across the country," adding that Trump is "very pleased" by the results.
Lewandowski took a moment to encourage John Kasich and Ted Cruz to drop out of the race and back Trump, and said the party has to "unify, we have to bring people together right now, we have to have a unified effort so we don't have four more years of a Democrat in the White House."
