Trump’s people make lovely apologies…

I’m confused here with all his double speak. Is he saying this is his FB page, but someone else sometimes posts things on it? And he’s not sure if he did, or if this other mysterious person wrote it? And why is he using allegedly regarding what the post said? Is he disputing the words that were actually written?

Maybe in his roundabout way he is saying The Donald wrote it.

What he’s really saying is he knows those were his thoughts but it must have been a momentary “lapse” when writing them down on FB, He’s not disavowing the sentiment, just regretting he got caught and publicly embarrassed. And he lost his job.

Dude needs a job ASAP, he has bills to pay, so he figures the best way to get one is to go the Jesus route, ask for forgiveness, inject a little Christianity into the issue and wait for the right-wingers to run to defend him. Suckers. They can never pass up an opportunity to play victim and/or martyr for the right-wing “cause,” whatever the hell it is.

Sounds like one of the 12 steps. Apologize and make amends for past wrong doing.

So he’s an alcoholic and drug abuser as well as being a bigot? I didn’t know that but who knew this guy anyway.

Sorry…that was just a guess on my part. Don’t want to be sued for libel.

I was being snarky because you hit the nail on the head. Fall on your sword when you’ve been caught doing dumb ass things and get some religion at the same time…

“I am writing regarding a Facebook post that was reportedly posted to my account in 2007, more than eight years ago,” he began in his letter, according to the report. “I have no memory of writing it and am not saying I did. The post however allegedly said a disgusting, inexcusable reference to your daughter.”
Weasel tries to salvage his reputation and career with weaselly non-apology. In the real world, this would not cut it. Fortunately for him, he’s only concerned about the right-wing echo chamber, where all is easily forgiven.

Yes, it was inexcuseable what Sam Nunberg said but Sharpton’s daughter Dominique has her daddy’s grifter genes for sure. Even the NY Post went after her recently for trying to shake down the city for a cool 5 million for a sprained ankle. If she wins maybe she’ll use it to pay off Daddy Al’s 4.5 mill in back taxes he owes to the city. From the Post:
Dominique Sharpton, 28, says she was “severely injured, bruised and wounded” when she stumbled over uneven pavement at the corner of Broome Street and Broadway downtown last year, according to a lawsuit. Currently on vacation in Bali, the membership director for her gadfly dad’s National Action Network claims she “still suffers and will continue to suffer for some time physical pain and bodily injuries,”
And despite claiming “permanent physical pain” in a breathless notice of claim, there are social-media shots of her in high heels, and another of her climbing a ladder to decorate a Christmas tree.
She was left with “internal and external injuries to the whole body, lower and upper limbs, the full extent of which are unknown, permanent pain and mental anguish,” she alleges.
The younger Sharpton is seeking the damages for “loss of quality of life, future pain and suffering, future medical bills, [and] future diminution of income,” according to court papers.
You are despicable.

A non-apology apology if I’ve ever seen one.

Exactly. Nunberg: You either did or you didn’t. Who else posts on your FB page? No “allegedly” to it, dude. It was there. You don’t remember? – Then who else writes for you? – Name names.

You hafta think and speak in GOP word salad. I suggest you contact Sarah Palin who is the acknowledged word expert in BS. Myself…I don’t understand this kind of bullshit.
““I am writing regarding a Facebook post that was reportedly posted to my
account in 2007, more than eight years ago,” he began in his letter,
according to the report. “I have no memory of writing it and am not saying I did."
The post however allegedly said a disgusting, inexcusable reference to your daughter.””
(bolding is mine)
This is not language one should attach to an apology
If he has no memory of writing it and says he didn’t why is he apologizing?? Ergo the bullshit.
