I recall, for my memory goes back that far, of Richard Nixon arguing with the president of the USSR. If Mr. Nixon had not chosen his words carefully, well, we might not be here. Mr. Nixon, despise him as you will, was very good in talking with USSR and Chinese leaders.

President Obama, I will say, chooses his words carefully and thoughtfully. I believe that, as President, Hillary Rodham Clinton will do the same.

In international politics, one has little room for expressing 'regret' over ill-chosen words.

Crooked Hillary a lifetime of lies !!!!!!! Time to just say no !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A few more exclamation points may convince me.

His reading skills never seem to improve though. I imagine that he's the type of person who reads articles by following along with his finger on the page. It's robotic, like Stephen Hawking's talking computer.

What's with this?

I thought it's going to be "Let Trump be Trump" from here on end, not "Let Trump be on Teleprompter."

Robo-Trump is no good for anyone.

He's a cowardly BS artist full of false apologies. He's not adult enough to name names and ask forgiveness from the many individuals he has mocked and dissed.

I have to give him credit for overcoming his handicap -- stubby short fingers -- which made it a challenge to read in such manner.

He's going to Louisiana tomorrow with Pence. Has Obama been there yet or is he still golfing and riding his bicycle?


Trump is just getting started while the Democrats seemed to have run out of ideas.

There are more than a few people he owes personal apologies to. This "blanket" apology doesn't work for me. Judge Curiel, the Khans.... He needs to make personal apologies.

What is the point of going there? The people there have enough work to do without worrying about some "celebrity" who's just looking for publicity.
