Primarily because he was voicing some ideas other people gave him. And in the days to follow, he'll revert to type and say something that reflects who he really is - again.

Trump is whoever he needs to be to sell what he is selling at that moment - but he always is:

2. Narcissist
3. Egomaniacal
4. Fraud/Con
5. Liar

All the rest is window dressing.
