Donald Trump Brags About Apologizing Though ‘A Lot Of People Said’ Not To

Source: Huffington Post

On Wednesday, the typically unapologetic real estate mogul managed to turn that pseudo-apology into an opportunity to brag, when a Florida television station asked him to elaborate on it.

Trump ― as he and his campaign have done before ― declined to specify which of his many offensive statements and personal attacks he regretted.

“No, I don’t want to talk about that. I just think that every once in a while, I could probably do, I could make statements maybe a little bit differently,” he said.

Then he suggested that “a lot of people” didn’t want him to express any regret at all.

Yup, Donald Trump managed to self-congratulate himself for his vague non-apology.

And apology is addressed to a specific person or group of people. It is made in their presence and it includes a description of the actions or words that created the offense. Finally there is an assumption that the act will not be repeated.

Trump isn't "sorry" he's triangulating for votes.

Today's dipshit donnie, talked to yesterday's, last weeks, and future dipshit donnie and they all agreed. His only regret is the poll number's are down. And he really didn't want to say that.
