Trump consults with him still. This short-leash stuff has never worked with Trump and he'll get sick of Conway soon enough.
His "read" admission of saying he had used wrong words and may have hurt people, was written by someone else and he read it, didn't mean a word of it. I'm sure that was Conway's suggestion that it be done. She is likely the one who said go to Louisiana to appear concerned about those who went through that flood.
I agree Trump won't like the "short-leash" of being a nice guy. He is what he is before Conway got there.
If he stops reading from teleprompters, he will be back just as gross as ever.
