Trump finally apologizes for something - Yahoo News Canada


President Donald Trump has broken the habit of a lifetime and issued a rare apology, albeit not to Barack Obama and Michelle Obama, for reposting a meme of them on Truth Social, despite facing intense pressure to do so.

Trump caused uproar on both sides of the aisle last week by recirculating a video depicting the 44th president and his first lady as apes.

He deleted the clip but later told reporters aboard Air Force One that there was no reason for him to apologize because, in his opinion, he had done nothing wrong.

“No, I didn’t make a mistake,” the president said. “I looked at the beginning of it. It was fine.”

Instead, the issue he did feel compelled to apologize over was his past endorsement of Oklahoma’s Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt after the official angered him by insisting on the bipartisan purity of the National Governors Association, an organization he chairs.

“When Kevin Stitt, the very mediocre (at best!) RINO Governor of Oklahoma, was losing his Election to a Democrat, primarily because he did a bad job, he called for my help. I Endorsed him, and he won,” Trump wrote on his social media platform late Wednesday.

“Sorry, my cherished Oklahoma, to have done that to you!”
