Trump claims he tried to quell “send her back!” chants. The video says otherwise.
During an Oval Office media session with the US Special Olympics team on Thursday, President Donald Trump made a desperate attempt to distance himself from one of the ugliest moments of his presidency — one his words directly incited, despite what he’d now have people believe.
ABC’s Jonathan Karl asked why he didn’t do something to try to stop the “send her back!” chants that were directed toward Somali refugee-turned-Rep. Ilhan Omar during his rally the night before in North Carolina. Trump defended himself by simply lying.
“Well, number one, I think I did. I started speaking very quickly,” Trump said. “I disagree with [the chants], by the way. But it was quite a chant, and I felt a little bit badly about it. But I will say — I did, and I started speaking very quickly. But it started up rather fast.”
Trump went on to try to draw a contrast between what he said and what his supporters chanted.
“I didn’t say that, they did,” Trump said.....

You could see the reptilian part of his brain (which is most of it) basking in the glory of that chant. 13 seconds is how long he stood there, basking.

Trump is trailing in the polls and he is desperate, and is resorting to some rather scummy tactics, that back fired on him. This is what Trump instigated, this is what Trump
intended, but some of his GOP colleagues saw that this could have dire effects on the party, so they criticize him.

Notice how the party is more important than so-called American values.

Exactly. You know, it doesn't even matter if the cretin himself is a racist or not. What matters is that many in his base *are,* and he panders to them. It's despicable.
