Video surfaces refuting Trump’s claim that he’s never called someone ‘retarded’
The Amazon Compost ^ | September 6 at 9:40 AM | John Wagner

President Trump claimed this week that he had never used the word “retarded” to describe Attorney General Jeff Sessions — or anyone else — in an attempt to rebut one of the details included in the forthcoming Bob Woodward book that paints a harrowing portrait of his presidency.

Since then, video and transcripts have surfaced proving the president wrong.

Trump’s claim about Sessions came in a Tuesday tweet, in which he wrote: “The already discredited Woodward book, so many lies and phony sources, has me calling Jeff Sessions ‘mentally retarded’ and ‘a dumb southerner.’ I said NEITHER, never used those terms on anyone, including Jeff, and being a southerner is a GREAT thing. He made this up to divide!”

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump The already discredited Woodward book, so many lies and phony sources, has me calling Jeff Sessions “mentally retarded” and “a dumb southerner.” I said NEITHER, never used those terms on anyone, including Jeff, and being a southerner is a GREAT thing.

Well, it finally worked.

After 7+ years of full blown support I guess I have to turn my back to Trump.

Having watched Magoo over the past year I’d say the word fits nicely.

What's the problem? Although I personally would never use the word "retarded" for Jeff Sessions.

I'd call him a "retard" instead.

Trump never said he had never called someone "retarded". He said he never called anybody a "mentally retarded dumb southerner".

If the Washington Compost wants to split hairs and be petty, so can we.....

So Trump used the word “retard”. And we here all know that the Post exhibited the same journalistic courage and determination to report Hillary’s “F$$king Jew ba$$ard” remark as well.

I'm more upset that the POTUS used "our democracy" instead of "our Republic" the other day when describing America than with him for calling someone a retard.
The Compost is retarded for not correcting him in print.

Oh, wait...the Compost thinks we're a democracy too.
Never mind.

The video “surfaced”.

Why can’t they just say “we were able to dig up...”

I hate the deviousness of the presses use of language.

What’s their point? I’d like to dare them to pick any politician, and go through every recorded or written word in their background, and not come up with more than a few ill spoken words. But, no. This must be one of President Trump’s, what...3,764 lies I keep hearing liberals accuse him of. I’d also love to see that list of lies that’s being bandied about. Absurd! And yet, there are people who believe that.

If he did...So the F#ck what??!!

Remember when Obama described his bowling as something out of the Special Olympics? Start the impeachment hearings?

Everyone uses non-PC language every now and again. Who the hell cares?
