Will Voters Soon See a Kinder, Gentler Donald Trump?

Is it possible that Americans will soon see a more presidential Donald Trump? That's what the business tycoon's advisers are telling GOP leaders behind closed doors.

But that anything-goes style may not be out the door just yet, especially with five primary contests next Tuesday.

"I've got two leftovers. I've got to finish that, okay?" Trump told supporters.

Still, top aides to the Republican front-runner insist Trump will moderate his tone in the coming months. It's a move Trump himself has begun to hint at.

"At some point, I'm going to be so presidential that you people will be so bored," the billionaire told supporters.

Trump's unpredictability took another turn on Wednesday, however. He called the move to put Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill "pure political correctness."

He also blasted North Carolina's new bathroom law, which says that biological sex determines who goes into male and female government restrooms.

His rival, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, immediately fired back.

"He thought that men should be able to go into the girls' bathroom if they want to. Now let me ask you, have we gone stark, raving nuts?" Cruz asked.

On the Democratic side, as Hillary Clinton's grasp on the nomination tightens, Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Vt., is showing few signs of backing down.

He's reminding Pennsylvania voters of Clinton's high-priced private speeches to Wall Street. And he's down-playing comments he made that Clinton's wins in the South "distort reality" because they came from the country's "most conservative region."

Southern leaders have told Sanders he should amplify their voices, and not diminish them.
