Trump: This Is the Republican Party, It’s Not Called the Conservative Party

Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump said in an interview airing Sunday on ABC that while he was a conservative, people shouldn’t forget that “this is called the Republican Party, it’s not called the Conservative Party.”

In a wide-ranging interview with This Week’s George Stephanopoulos, Trump addressed the problem he faces of unifying the Republican Party, which is divided over his presumptive nomination for the presidency. Prominent figures like Jeb Bush and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R., S.C.) have already stated they will not support him, and Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (R., Wis.) said this week he was not ready to back Trump.

Didn't watch but but I assume at some point Stephanopoulos asked the obvious question about whether he was planted by Bill Clinton to help Hillary win

I assume the Stephanopoulos pointed out to Trump that everything he's done so far is exactly a what a Bill Clinton plant would have done (so obvious)

How did Trump respond?
