Trump: Immigration remarks in spin cycle
The president speaks. Aides rush in to rationalize. Four points to ponder:
1) The president’s disparaging remarks about Haiti were a win for straight talk, not to be condoned, but at least not politically correct.
2) Remember, this guy isn’t a career politician. (See number 1 above.)
3) Everyone does it.
4) In any case, the president didn’t really say that.
Wash, rinse, repeat.
Justify, lie, deny.
