Why is it okay that for the past week he said he was never present when these things were said and that had he been, he would have stood up and said something, yet today he admits he was present and did absolutely nothing for 20 years?

Because he's a Democrat.

Because he's a Black Democrat.

Because he's a Black Democrat Leftist.

I had the same thought: he is again revealing himself as a liar and a charlatan.

Moreover, he said today that he could no more dismiss his white grandmother (whom he accused of racism) than he could dismiss the "entire black community". Aside from the fact that he is defending himself by slandering the black community AND his own grandmother, it would seem that he is positing a false choice: between rejecting them utterly and putting up with their alleged racist crap. Why can't he simply correct his grandmother and leave the racist church?
