Probably true but I actually found it refreshing that a politician admittrd they were wrong and apologized. Doesn't happen very often.89Hen wrote:All of the above?UNI88 wrote:What's worse a fake apology, denying you said it or ignoring evidence and obstinately insisting you are correct?
"I made a mistake, benefited from that mistake and denied it was a mistake for many years." That would be a lot better.

Yeah, I didn't see a video of any of it. So not sure how complete or sincere it was, if at all.89Hen wrote:Barely.UNI88 wrote:a politician admittrd they were wrong and apologized

I'm not sure Trump has ever apologized so barely is better than nothing.89Hen wrote:Barely.UNI88 wrote:a politician admittrd they were wrong and apologized

I don't like Warren and I wouldn't vote for her but it was something no matter how small. Just giving a little credit where I feel it is due.

You can use "mistake" a couple of different ways. It's a word that leaves you a lot of room.CAA Flagship wrote:Yeah, I didn't see a video of any of it. So not sure how complete or sincere it was, if at all.89Hen wrote: Barely.
Would like to know what "mistakes" she is talking about.

Plenty of politicians have apologized 88 but I agree Trump isn't one of them. Most politicians who apologize do it more as "I'm sorry I got caught."UNI88 wrote:I'm not sure Trump has ever apologized so barely is better than nothing.89Hen wrote: Barely.

Yes, that's my point. News outlets have been interpreting this several ways. But it really is impossible to do accurately without more from Warren.89Hen wrote:You can use "mistake" a couple of different ways.

Maybe I'm wrong but my perception is most politicians avoid apologizing until it's too late and their careers are going down in flames.89Hen wrote:Plenty of politicians have apologized 88 but I agree Trump isn't one of them.

I could be splitting hairs.
