My initial thoughts are that this speech probably contains mostly truth, and was deliberately leaked to give the media a chance to fact-check and mark the shift in tone from Trump. At the same time, the speech limits his ad-libbing. They know he's going to do it anyway (and those wee bits are the parts the crowd will cheer) but this reins him in.
We're now seeing nominee Trump: a boor becoming a politician.
Edit: an increasingly red politician. Needs to loosen that tie.
