I truly believe he believed what he said all along. I figure all the "CYA" spin is coming from his staff.

I wholeheartedly agree that he said what he meant to say. The "muffed joke" was nothing but back pedaling by his staff after it all hit the fan.

The true colors of the man were shown in the infantile rant of a "press conference" followed by the non-apology that blamed the idiot listeners for not being nuanced enough to understand what he meant to say.
