this is galling to me. When the POTUS is speaking at a meeting, you have to believe that all ears are on him. So, she is a friggin liar.

is that they didn't hear Donnie Dumbfuck say "shithole." They heard him say "shithouse," which strikes me as a distinction without a difference.

They are grasping to deflect and imply that Durbin and Graham are lying.
