Donald Trump is back in Tampa.
Wednesday the republican candidate for president is expected to speak around 1 p.m. at the Florida State Fairgrounds. Doors open at 10 a.m.
Some say we can expect to notice something a little different about Trump when he takes the stage Wednesday afternoon.
“Teleprompter Trump”, as some are referring to him, could be a little more reserved and speak a lot less off the cuff.
Some supporters think a more disciplined style will help Trump rally against Hillary Clinton, but critics say it’s his off the cuff remarks that got him this far in the first place.
Trump trails by large margins in several key states, but he's still fighting to win in Florida. That's why even though Trump cancelled rallies in Colorado, Oregon, and Nevada over the past several days, he's continuing to come to Florida and spend more money in the Sunshine State on ads than anywhere else in the nation.
People across the country are wondering why at a time when the Republican nominee should hitting swing states he is instead deciding to skip appearances even in states like Nevada where he is fairly close to Hillary Clinton in the polls.
While the exact reasons for the cancelations are unclear, Trump doesn’t appear to want to dump Florida.
Trump is also expected to try to appeal to minorities. He's made a lot of eyebrow raising remarks, and our 10 News Political analyst Lars Hafner says whatever he utters Wednesday or in the months to come, it'll be hard to make up for all those controversial comments.
Trump only has the support of 8% of black voters, 22% of Hispanics, and he's still working to win over women too, according to a recent poll.
For the first time Trump is now saying he regrets some of his earlier comments about minorities, but if you take a close look at Trump's recent comments, you'll notice he never once apologized for some of his most scathing comments about minorities, rather saying he regrets the words he's uttered.
There will also be another group out here at the Florida State Fairgrounds: Protesters.
Immigration groups in Florida are planning to dress up like a brick wall and hold banners for supporters to see as they walk into the Fairground gates.
A more scripted Trump is expected to hit hard on these issues: law enforcement, middle class tax relief, and defeating terrorism.
