"Donald, We're Up by 15 Points"

5/2/2016

(I'm in the back seat of Donald Trump's plane as it heads to Indiana)

Manafort:

"Donald, I just received early notice of the new 
Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll for Indiana.  We're up 15%"

Trump:

"That makes sense.  The IPFW poll was off, way off.  Or was rigged.  Was the RNC behind the IPFW poll?"

(Manafort and Trump laugh)

Manafort:

"Having the General on our side has been a tremendous help.  Much better than Pence."

Trump:

"Yes, and Bobby Knight is clear.  Pence is a typical politician, playing both sides.  By the way, what did Cruz say about the poll."

Manafort:

"Cruz said that if he loses Indiana, he still sees a clear path to the nomination."

Trump:

"What bullshit.  He's delusional.  Did you see him trying to push Chuck Todd around?"

Manafort:

(Chuck Todd impression) "Senator, it's not the press who is against you. It's the people. They are not voting for you."

Trump and Manafort laugh

Trump:

"But he would make a hell of a Supreme Court justice.  And that keeps him the hell out of my way for four years.  And it cuts off the stupid 'dream ticket' ideas of a Trump Cruz ticket.  Paul, leak out that I'm giving serious consideration to having Cruz as my first Supreme Court justice nomination."

Manafort:

"Consider it done.  I'll break it for Mike Allen to run tomorrow morning.  And Donald, I'd like 10 minutes to discuss the California plan again."

Trump:

"You've got it.  Just let me call my wife. And then I've got a conference call with my kids in 20 minutes.  Right after that. Thanks Paul"

Manafort:

"You're welcome Donald.  And let's plan for our face to face with Marco next week.  July will be here before we know it."

Trump nods, and smiles.
