CLEVELAND (AP) — Donald Trump plans to deliver a more traditional, "prepared speech" on the closing night of the Republican convention.
That's according to top Trump adviser Paul Manafort who spoke to reporters at a Bloomberg breakfast.
Manafort says Trump and his team have been studying previous convention speeches, including Richard Nixon's 1968 acceptance speech. He says that speech from nearly 50 years ago is largely in line with many of the issues facing the country today.
The 1968 campaign was marred by violence and protests, drawing some comparisons to the current election climate.
Manafort says Trump is on the "third or fourth draft" of the address he'll deliver from Cleveland Thursday night.
