This is your hypothetical future event:
> And if he said “no,” there are many that will not be stopped, that the NE will continue to “report” with “new” accusations, and the cycle continues because his opponents will never find even the simplest answer to be enough.
This is reality:
“That question is garbage. It’s a smear. That story was planted by Trump’s henchmen bla bla bla” (deflection)
vs.
“I have never beaten my wife” (denial)
You “quoted” me as saying this is a story planted by Trump when I said no such thing and never once ever referred to Trump
I said no such thing.
