Americans have endured another news cycle in which Donald Trump made outrageous statements at a rally and then spent the next several days gaslighting and making weaselly excuses for how he was misinterpreted.

1. It may as well have been, "nice country you got here, I'd hate ta see sumptin' happen to it if I don't win."

I watched a little TYT and Cenk and Ana were buying the auto industry blood bath angle. Bullshit. He made it clear when he said the cars sales problem would be the least of it and specifically a blood bath in the country.

When was this deal to build the plants in Mexico hammered out anyway? That doesn't happen overnight. They may have made the deal on Trump's watch.

2. It's been said that this happened on TFG's watch, like so many deals left for the Democrats to clean up, as always

And TFG was warned to stop his constant attacks on the legal personnel that he was going after - so now he's desperate enough to turn to threatening the American people.
