In an interview with Bloomberg, Donald Trump was asked what he thought the GOP would look like five years from now.

"Five, 10 years from now — different party," Trump told Bloomberg. "You're going to have a worker's party. A party of people that haven't had a real wage increase in 18 years, that are angry."

Trump told Bloomberg that where he veers from traditional conservative views is driven by common sense and the electoral map; Republicans need to expand their base.

"I think Republicans lose because they have a harder highway in the (battleground) states," Trump told Bloomberg. "If you look at the states, the Democrats have a lot of cushion; the Republicans have no cushion."

The real estate mogul said his views have been shaped by talking to people, hearing the outrage firsthand.

"My views are what everybody else's views are," Trump told Bloomberg. "When I give speeches, sometimes I'll sign autographs and I'll get to talk to people and learn a lot about the party."
