That he made up the phone call thinking it was exonerating him. He isn't as smart as you are. (I think that is what they call damning with faint praise )

He has a history of making up phone calls that never happened. I can think of several occasions.

isn't the tweet itself an admission of guilt?

I just think he is so clueless that he made the admission without even having the call.

The wife is charging abuse and the husband (who did not hit his wife) wants the tapes for court.

you would just ask for the tapes for a certain period of time or make them accessible to the accuser.

but since you're so wealthy, can you spare $1,000?

My wife and I a very happily married and I am far from wealthy. I don't even raise my voice to my wife. I am not ashamed to say that I get the last word in every discussion with my wife. "Yes dear."

happy life! You're wise to live by that mantra, louis.

though not necessarily on the set of the apprentice.

if he's never used the word, then he knows he's never used the word.

if he does use the word, he's not likely to remember exactly where and when he's used it.


so now he's in the situation where even if someone were to go through allll the tapes and determine that no such recording exists, we're still left with the near-certain knowledge that he *had* used the term in other contexts, enough to where he felt it was plausible enough that he might have used it on the set of the apprentice.

but i'm thinking that the call went more like this:
"uh, got any tapes of me that i wouldn't want to come out?"
"dude, why do you think we had to shoot everything three times?"
"ok, how much do i have to pay you to keep those tapes hidden forever?"

"@MarkBurnettTV called to say...." Just sayin' not defending.

Why wouldn't he speak to the press and say he has all the tapes and none of them have Trump saying anything derogatory about anyone.

To call Trump and not back him up with a tweet or a statement certainly makes you wonder, doesn't it?
