    I've said repeatedly that he should not have said it.

    But, the reporting on his comments became all about "many sides". It was as if it somehow negated everything else he said, which it did not.

    And so Trump quoted the rest of his own, original statement at the rally on Tuesday, and he's being accused of misleading the crowd because he left out the "many sides" part.

    Which, again is evidence that the media thinks that negates everything else he did say.

    You have said repeatedly that he should not have said it because it gave the liberal media something to criticize him for.

    But do you understand why it was in poor taste? Do you understand what was actually distastful about stating it that way?

    And both of them are online-only streams that won't draw 10,000 viewers combined.

    It negates every single word of it.

    No. I've said repeatedly that it was not the time or place for those remarks as well. There should have been one focus, and only one focus.

    It was dumb, and even distasteful.

    It still does not negate the rest of what he said.

    It sure as hell does. Those comments show exactly who the man is.

    McConnell and Ryan are as responsible as anyone for Trump's victory. Going after them will not hurt Trump.

    That's not why the tweets were stupid.
