It doesn’t matter the “controversy of the day” as it pertains to Donald Trump, does it? But the one that David was referring to in this CNN interview is when Trump said this:

“If she [Hillary Clinton] gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the second amendment people, maybe there is, I don’t know. But I’ll tell you what, that will be a horrible day.”

David said:

“You know, it’s honestly embarrassing to watch Republicans argue he was talking about mobilizing second amendment voters. It was painfully obvious assassination reference. I don’t think he was seriously making a call for Hillary Clinton to be assassinated. I think he was speaking from context it was obvious and what you do when you put your foot in your mouth like that is you apologize immediately. Instead, you’ve got all of these Republicans out there embarrassing themselves trying to excuse the statement that was in context about assassination. You have Donald Trump who is going to do what Donald Trump does, which is never make things better. Always make things worse. It’s deja vu all over again.”

Well, no one will ever accuse him of mincing words, because THEN he gets real. Watch and see for yourself:
