Precisely which words does Mr. Trump regret? Hillary Clinton’s aides pounced on the speech, trying to disabuse anyone of the idea that this could mean a “new” version of Mr. Trump. Mr. Trump spoke about a “New American Future,” a line similar to the “New American Century” that Marco Rubio heralded during the Republican primary.

Still, Mr. Trump invoked the touchstones of his campaign, including a restrictive immigration policy that would primarily affect Muslims.
