You all are going to have to get over the comedians remark everyone else is...Joe's comment will live forever.... They made a mistake trying to explain it away...and change the transcript...that made it worse... Someone says she "disagreed" with what he said...what else could she ws she going to say? She's not honest.... She was applauding that remark...;)

Ok...President Trump did not support the comment...nor did the campaign... Does anyone here watch comedians these guys?

He provided the forum for the comment to be made, his team knew the comment was going to be made, and he did not condemn the comment.

So they didn't vet all the remarks... The guy is a comedian

Harris would not have let a known racist comedian in her rallies.

Notably the campaign did not say if that particular joke was known.

A national political campaign at a critical stage is going to know, vet, and stage everything that happens at a major political rally.

It was garbage that had absolutely no place at a political rally where you should be trying to win votes instead of chasing them away.

If you were running for office would you have an insult comic appear at your event? I doubt it.

Trump’s campaign has been a disaster from this to no ground game. He can’t attract good people anymore.

No just give Trump some time I am sure he could insult somebody out there.
Trump can NOT keep his big mouth shut.
 
Trump’s apology, non apology, as he always does, he leaves a way to get out of it if his base doesn’t approve:

“Yeah, I don’t know if it’s a big deal or not, but I don’t want anybody making nasty jokes or stupid jokes, and probably he shouldn’t have been there, yeah.”

Donald Trump says Puerto Rico remarks not a "big deal"

"I can't imagine it's a big deal," the former president said of the comedian who called Puerto Rico "garbage."

It’s not a big deal is not an apology!

I have never, ever heard Trump express any genuine regret or contrition. Even about cheating on all his wives.

There is no way this comedian and what he was going to say was not vetted and cleared by Trump's staff, which makes Trump ultimately responsible. Doesn't he claim to hire "the best people"?

1) A no-name comedian made a joke about the conditions in Puerto Rico.
2) The current "President" (Chief Puppet) seriously and directly called Trump supporters garbage.

I care about #2, not about #1.
