    Need I remind you of the same crap they pulled with the Helsinki video edits?

    Forgive me if I don't trust this WH to stay honest when it comes to optics

    Perhaps this is a typo and it will be corrected soon. if it's not, then their likely motivation is to obfuscate the insult.

    Do you really, honestly, believe that Trump cares if he is seen as insulting after all he has said thus far in his political life??

    I don't trust the WH - any WH - to stay honest when it comes to anything regarding optics. Ever. Period. Incidentally, I apply my skepticism to both parties when they are in the WH, whereas you just apply it to Republicans. Just sayin'.

    I just think this was an obvious typo.

    No. But others in the White House might... like I said, if it was a typo (the "A" and the "I" are not close to eachother and it's unlikely an autocorrect would differentiate the two), it will be corrected shortly.

    A typo doesn't have to be two letters near one another. Sometimes your mind just types a different, similar word because you're used to typing it.

    At any rate, as you say, it's irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. Just another example of how you guys are going after anything you possibly can, no matter how insignificant.

    Frankly I'm surprised you guys didn't accuse Trump of being prejudiced against the letter "I".

    There's that balance that you talked about earlier....

    It's an interesting note when you consider
    1. it's another instance of trump's belligerence to a woman.
    2. the white house has done a lot to obfuscate some of the worse parts of trump's behavior.

    You defend Trump a lot for someone who doesn't trust "any white house."

    We both know that trump's favorite word is "I."

    How am I defending Trump? Are you losing your mind?

    Trump is belligerent to everyone. Man or woman. Get with the program.

    It was a typo.

    Trump is a jackass. It's not a typo. It's a clumsy attempt to make it look like a typo. Trump is a jackass.
