Still seems pretty likely he said it frequently on the set of the Apprentice. According to some witnesses. Tapes would be interesting. And vile. Was probably like a football coach in 1950s Alabama.
MAGA is arguing that he was referring to "all" politicians. Maybe so, but if the tables were turned they wouldn't listen to any logic or context, so I'm going with Trump is a racist and meant it as he is a smart black politician and she isn't a smart black politician.
Countdown to redefining what the cretin meant by "some" in 3...2...1.... At least he didn't follow it up by saying something like "look at MY african-American over there". Oh.......wait.......
