Using Carson to deduce what Trump doesn't really believe. We can make a good case that Trump doesn't really believe in the Muslim ban or deporting illegals because those are two Trump "positions" Carson objected to:

“I needed to know that he could listen to other people, that he could change his opinions, and that some of the more outlandish things that he’s said, that he didn’t really believe those things,” Carson said.

When asked which statements Trump might back away from, Carson demurred.

“I’ll let him talk about that because I don’t think it’s fair for me to relay a private conversation,” he said.

What "outlandish" views of Trump's was Carson worried about? The Muslim ban was one.
Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson said Wednesday that GOP frontrunner Donald Trump’s call for blocking all Muslims from entering the country would be unconstitutional discrimination.

“You can’t discriminate against people based on their religion,” Carson said in an interview with The Detroit News. “That really would not be consistent with the First Amendment rights guaranteed by our Constitution.” ...

Not to mention deporting illegal aliens.

Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson knocked rival Donald Trump's immigration plan on Tuesday, saying that deporting the country's undocumented immigrants "sounds really cool" but would be far too costly and complicated.

"It sounds really cool, you know, 'Let's just round them all up and send them back,'" Carson said. "People who say that have no idea what that would entail in terms of our legal system, the costs - forget about it. Plus, where you gonna send them? It's just a double whammy."
