Trump’s teleprompted speech last night, didn’t include either of the words; sorry or apologize. Does he regret saying all those insulting, stupid and provocative things? He regrets them because the blowback was more than he could handle. The polls indicated a seriously deteriorating chance of even being competitive in the election. New people came in to advise him and he used the opportunity to try to make amends and get back in the public’s good graces, without ever saying that he was sorry or that he apologized.
Sadly, the Republican party has nominated a charlatan who is a complete fraud and disgrace. In the bizarre and unthinkable event of a trump election win, he will not ascend to the presidency, but to the throne of a king, or to the autocracy of a dictator. He does not put up with dissention of any kind. The first amendment will no longer be respected by the man who resides in the White House.
At least the snake oil salesmen of old, had a chance that what they were selling could help some condition possibly, but Trump’s snake oil won’t help anyone ever. RJB
