So he "condemns" the video without first seeing it, but *will* see it. Taking bets: He will laugh his way through it.

Ex-Bush Aide Has Damning Theory For Why Trump Supporters Won't Turn On Him
Peter Wehner said theres a reason why many of President Donald Trumps most loyal supporters wont turn on him.
It is almost like a hermetically sealed world, Wehner said on CNNs Reliable Sources. Facts are like BBs, theyre just bouncing off of a brick wall. They just dont penetrate.
Wehner, who served in the administrations of presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush and as a senior aide in the White House of President George W. Bush, said it comes down to a concept called the psychology of accommodation.
People decided early on for a variety of reasons to accommodate themselves to Donald Trump, some of them thinking that things would get better, that he would grow in office, that he would be surrounded by good people, Wehner said.
Instead, Trump has gotten worse. But because of their early accommodation of the president, these voters are essentially stuck with him.
Now its not just a defense of Trump. Its a defense of their defense of Trump, Wehner said. To indict him is to indict themselves, and to indict their own judgment, and thats hard for any human being.
The result: They will defend him regardless of what happens, come hell or high water.
In 2016, Trump bragged that his supporters were so loyal that not even murder could shake them.

John McCain in the neck, hits and stabs TV personality Rosie O'Donnell in the face, lights Sen. Bernie Sanders' head on fire and shoots or otherwise assaults people whose faces are replaced with news organization logos.
Trump's face is superimposed on a killer's body. Among the targets: former President Barack Obama, Black Lives Matter, Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters, Bill and Hillary Clinton and Rep. Adam Schiff, .
