Here’s Donald Trump clarifying what he meant to say about Russia and if any 54 second clip sums up the Trump presidency, then it’s this one.
BREAKING: President Trump claims he misspoke while discussing election meddling during news conference with Putin: "In a key sentence in my remarks, I said the word 'would' instead of 'wouldn't.' … The sentence should've been: 'I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t be Russia'" pic.twitter.com/2bA9EionD1

I would just like to clarify I should have said "don't launch the nuclear missiles" not "launch the nuclear missiles" It should have been clear, I thought it was clear, it wasn't. https://t.co/hd3Yo7B8zw

Trump is beyond parody. Each time he disgraces himself, his shamelessness allows him to continue. But the same quality should disqualify him from public office. https://t.co/U6OxKAYurk

Sure. Politicians lie. But has there ever been such a ridiculous, blatant lie told direct to camera. A lie that would have a five year old blushing? How stupid does he think people are? I suppose he knows how stupid they are. They made him president. https://t.co/j2gAY38kJP
