Inconsistent positions on key issues by frontrunner donald trump, and he followed that up today with anotr surprising aboutface. While Trumps Campaign has proven impervious to missteps its yet another reminder of how his candidacy continues to confound his critics and befuddle his opponents. Nbcs katy tur starts us off tonight. Reporter donald trump i i michigan today. Im going to be so president ial. Ill be so president ial that you people will be screaming loosen up reporter who is the real donald trump . A true conservative or a chameleon . Ive never seen a successful person who wasnt flexible. You have to be flexible because you learn. Reporter the frontrunner still throwing jabs at his opponent. You defrauded the people of florida, little marco. Breathe, breathe, breathe. Reporter and stiti hard to pin down. So how is any of this telling it like it is . Well, in afghanistan i did mean iraq. I think you have to stay in afghanistan reporter trumps flip flops, headspinning, for giving syrian jeff reese asylum and then against it and for taxing companies who move jobs overseas. Wt are we not going to eat anymore, oreos reporter ut against criticism that his own line of ties and shirts are made abroad. They devalue their currencies, and they make tim possible for clothing makers in this country. Reporter last night defending targeting the families of terrorists and waterboarding saying the military will follow his orders. They wont refuse. They are not goingo refuse me, believe me. Reporter but against it today, telling the wall street journal, quote, i will not order a military officer to disobey the law. To a areat extent a lot of people are voting for him without knowing what he might do as president but basically saying this is someone i like. Reporter today mitt romney saying he couldnt hold back his disdain. But the time came when d dald trumps outrage had reached such a level that i simply had to speak out. Reporter and although his opponents claim trump has policy, will lose to Hillary Clinton, destroy the party and perhaps the country this is a time for seriousness on thesishous. You have yet to answer a single serious question about any of this. Reporter none of them refused their eventual support. Ill support the republican nominee. Yes, because i gave my word that i will. I will support whoever is the republican nominee for president. Reporter donald trump was supposed to speak at cpac tomorrow, the conservative gathering instead abruptly cancelling it today for a rally in kansas tomorrow. So far this Campaign Season hes only received mixed receptions at similar gatherings. Lester. Katy, thank you, and all this nastiness could make it awkward for trumps remaining rise. To support him if hes the nominee as you heard them promise. They all, of course, hope it doesnt come to that, but they may have less than two weeks to stop his momentum. Nbcs Hallie Jackson cpac with more. H ha llie. Reporter good evening, lester. Theres a lot of talk movement, but a better name for it for some may be never until november as all the antitrump candidates pledged their loyalty to donald trump if he is the nominee. Still, all three will fight ferociously over the next 11 days to try and prevent that from happening. Short term ted cruz is looking a a louisiana, libertarianleaning maine and is hoping for a s song showing in kansas, too, but so is marco rubio with three stops in that state today alone. Both of them, plus john kasich, hopes michigan could be a state where they can try and topple trump, but the more important date, thats march 15th, the home state showdown, rubio has to win florida, kasich has to win ohio. If they do and pick up valuable delegates, then everybody stays in the race since all three see narrow although unlikely paths to victory between now and the summer, thats whyhyou shouldnt expect to see them team up to try and take down trump tactically. But if trump wins both florida and ohio, it looks like just a matter of time before number he needs, 1,237 delegates, so mar 15th, either trump is the presumptive nominee or we look headed to a contested convention in cleveland. For people who cover politics its catnip, but for the gop it could be a watershed moment that reshapes the future of the party, leste and one other note for you. Late tonight here at Cpac Ben Carson formally suspending his campaign, officially making it a fourman race. Lester . Hallie jackson tonight, thank you. The latest jobs report is out and last month exceeded expectations, the u. S. Added 242,000 new jobs in february, beating econonist estimates by about 50,000. The Unemployment Rate remained stead the at 4. 9 . Much of those new jobs were added in health care, retail and bars and restaurants. Jobs are exactly what Hillary Clinton focused on today in michigan, but once again it was her private email server that her critics seed upon. Clinton is eager to move forward beyond the controversy, and from a former aide granted immunity will be able to do it. Nbcs Kristen Welker explains. Reporter with the chigan primary on tuesday, Hillary Clinton is in detroit today calling for sharp cuts in tax breaks for companies outsourcing jobs overseas. So michigan proves every day that American Workers are the best in the world. All they need is a fair chance. Reporter but her prive emails continue to loom large. Nbc news has confirmed former clinton staffer bryan pagano who help set up her private account was granted immunity to talk to the fbi sellingng while there may have been routine phishing attempts there is no evidence that the emails were hacked cns john harwood. Im happy now that everybody has been cooperatin and giving information. Reporter would you concede that you ana the people who worked for you at state department were sloppy information . No, no. Reporter today donald trump saying sanders only hope. The only thing that can saveeim if is hillary with regard to the emails. Repter meanwhile, sanders kept the focus on their trade differences. Hillary clinton was on the other side of many of these trade agreements supporting nafta. Reporter clinton dismissed the criticism and saved her sharpest attacks for last nights gop debate. The economy which should be at the top of any list that anybody running for president has was basically an after thought. Reporter clinton and sanders will face off at a debate in flint, michigan on sunday. Expect sanders to agaib be in attack mode, but secretary clinton has to be careful not to hit back too hard to alienate his supporters, the very voters she will need if she does make it to lester .

Other knives have been submitted ove the years, but this is the first one said to come from the simpson property. Ies in ninemonth criminal trial is over, he was acquitted. The civil trial is over and he was found responsible. I dont see anyone prosecuting o. J. Simpson for anything again.
