I knew someone would say that. Where in the article does it say that everyone in the room says it didn't happen?
Oh that's right, it's what the official White House statement said as well as other White House officials... That's definitely going to trump the reports in this story considering how truthful all of the officials and statements out of the White House have been. How silly of me.
Assume all you want... and while you're busy assuming people who constantly lie to us are telling the truth in this instance I'll be over here assuming that folks like you will never see the light.

It's almost pointless whether the story is even accurate or not. It defintely matters, and of course it's extremely important for the press to not be putting out stories like this without having properly vetted their sources and followed protocol (usually at least 2 reliable legit sources minimum), but... Does anyone on this board actually think he wouldn't say something that inflammatory?
If your answer is no imo you are either completely blind and unwilling to see this guy for who he is, or just an all out loyalist who doesn't give a shit.

I am sure he has said a lot of stuff like this. Probably worse stuff too. Most of us have. You have. I have. Druff has.
Most public people are self-aware enough not to blurt out off-color remarks in front of reporters though, but I think we can all agree Trump is not particularly self aware. I just accept that Trump doesn't really have any self-awareness or self control, and just blurts out whatever off-color thing he is thinking at the moment, and don't really care all that much.
But if it was a Democratic person in a similar situation I wouldn't care too much either. I couldn't care less about Hillary's "deplorable" comment for example.
I personally find all this partisan (from both sides) fake moral outrage and indignation to be quite nauseating.
i guess this story didn't make much news cause it was reported years before he ran for president, but trump has reportedly said much worse things:
https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/24/o...-a-racist.htmlAs Trump moved into casinos, discrimination followed. In the 1980s, according to a former Trump casino worker, Kip Brown, who was quoted by The New Yorker: “When Donald and Ivana came to the casino, the bosses would order all the black people off the floor. … They put us all in the back.”
In 1991, a book by John O’Donnell, who had been president of the Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, quoted Trump as criticizing a black accountant and saying: “Black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day. … I think that the guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault, because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is, I believe that. It’s not anything they can control.” O’Donnell wrote that for months afterward, Trump pressed him to fire the black accountant, until the man resigned of his own accord.
Trump eventually denied making those comments. But in 1997 in a Playboy interview, he conceded “the stuff O’Donnell wrote about me is probably true.”

That you think the moral outrage is fake speaks fairly loudly about your instincts.
Long before he ever considered politics, he was one of the most loathed people in New York City. He's a classless, vindictive, utterly truthless, drug addicted bigot and he has been since the 70s.
He was a living punchline for a joke about gauche clowns until Bannon gave him a game plan on how to snake charm the most simple minded, country stupid half of the nation.
So yeah, again, that moral outrage regarding this wet sack of fuck is real.

President Trump kicked off his holiday weekend at Mar-a-Lago Friday night at a dinner where he told friends, "You all just got a lot richer," referencing the sweeping tax overhaul he signed into law hours earlier.

“I believe the simplest explanation is, there is no God. No one created the universe and no one directs our fate. This leads me to a profound realization that there probably is no heaven and no afterlife either. We have this one life to appreciate the grand design of the universe and for that, I am extremely grateful.”
