re: #273 Dr Lizardo

When the Central Park 5 were cleared, the obvious thing to do would’ve been to say, publicly, “Wow, I spoke rashly; now I can see that they were wrongly convicted, and I hope that they’ll be compensated for this miscarriage of justice and I also ask that they accept my deepest apologies for my earlier remarks. I take back what I said, and to be blunt, I should’ve never said it at all.”

Trump - nah, he just fucking doubled-down on his BS.

Yeah it’s also a lack of ability to admit when he’s wrong which is what I got at with the lack of humility. Every other President in my lifetime has expressed regret about how, what, or why he’s done something but Trump? Not only can he not acknowledge that but he doubles down. You ask him about the Central Park Five now and he’d claim he never printed that ad.
