Why this lie, will always be known as a "lie." Trump did not misspeak
Let's say that you have a friend that you care a whole lot about. A great friend and that friend has a wonderful family. While talking to the friend, you say something very bad. But you got things mixed up. Too much booze. Ok, you have some people you work with who are with you, they catch the mistake you made to your friend, and tell you right away....What do you do?..But you care about this friend, very much because he is a great guy and has a great family........
You call your friend, immediately and tell him you made a mistake, and apologize profusely ....You do not wait, because you want the truth...to come out now, not tomorrow. Not after someone else (McConnell) makes a statement of truth.
You want to correct the error NOW!!! This was a terrible mistake, and you don't wait to apologize. You take care of the matter as soon as possible. So, if it was an honest mistake, (if that is possible) I and most of us would have dealt with it...last night..as soon as the plane landed. Clarify, and apologize to your friend.....IMMEDIATELY..!!!! Now, yes. late at night, but now, to immediately set thing right, because you care.
....It wasn't a mistake, it was a screw up of the highest order, and the tone of voice of that immediate apology would stand for itself. That is what I would do, and anyone who cared about that friend. It is that simple..
But no, Trump waited. McConnell spoke first, then Trump. Ok, so Trump was very tired from the trip. First thing in the morning with the tweets, .."I am sorry I made an awful mistake. I was wrong."...Not hours later, well ......."I misspoke." It won't stand the test of the truth, by lying again, so much later, he delivered himself to the garbage dump, and pushed himself in where he belongs.
