Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump said in an interview Wednesday that he was “disappointed and surprised” by Republican leaders who criticized his comments about a federal judge as “racist.”

After House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell sought to distance themselves from their party’s standard-bearer, Trump issued a statement Tuesday stepping back from his criticism of U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel. But in an interview with TIME, Trump said he was upset with the GOP leaders.

“I was disappointed and surprised,” he said Wednesday morning at Trump Tower in New York. Asked if he considered the comments disloyal, Trump noted that they came just as he was set to formally clinch the required number of delegates to win the nomination. “I had just won more votes than anyone in the history of the party, so I was a little bit surprised when they said that,” Trump said. “I didn’t think it was necessary. But you know, they have to say what they have to say. I’m a big boy. They have to say what they have to say.”

Trump has questioned whether Judge Curiel, an American citizen born in Indiana to Mexican immigrant parents, can be impartial in a lawsuit against him because of his Mexican heritage.

1. I am too. It should have been made earlier, more forcefully, and with greater effect . . .

but now that they're saddled with this buffoon, all is forgiven as I watch them squirm.

3. Awww... poor disappointed drumpf

Note that this is MSM!!!!

Can it be true that they're refusing to coddle that cretin anymore??

Not exactly a silver-tongue devil, is he? (“I didn’t think it was necessary. But you know, they have to say what
they have to say. I’m a big boy. They have to say what they have to say.”)

Such profundity staggers me.

5. The Optics Of His News Conference Were Strange

He is flanked by his second wife and his daughter are directly behind him in the camera shot, but the rest of his family are off to the side. Either have your supporters behind you, your staff, or no one. But standing there with his model wife and model daughter immediately behind him as bookends while the rest of the family is off to the side just struck me as weird.

7. Third wife, actually. His second wife was Marla "No Excuses" Maples.

So many models, so little Trump.

4. “I was disappointed and surprised,” he said Wednesday morning

Well of course he was "disappointed and surprised".

Why?

Because he doesn't think that what he said was wrong.

Why?

Because that's what he believes AND the way he thinks.

10. It is all about Trump. he doesn't get that they are disappointed in him.

He has a narcissistic personality disorder, he will always see himself as the center of the universe. He is a sick man, but it is the nature of his disorder for him to be so arrogant and disgusting that it is almost impossible to have compassion for hm or anyone with his disorder. He is a seriously flawed individual. Same disorder Hitler had. Interesting.

11. He's getting his hit-list ready.

If he gets in there with be a "Night of the Long Knives" moment, I guarantee it.
