To quiet a flood of criticism about Trump's performance in Helsinki, Trump, today, offered a single clarification that he meant to use a double negative in one of his statements about Putin's attack on the 2016 elections. Instead of saying that "he didn't see why Putin would interfere in our election", he meant to say "he didn't see why not Putin would interfere with our election" This, of course, Trump feels should take care of all the hubbub surrounding his Helsinki trip except, now, with Trump agreeing with the assessment of his Intelligence services, how come Trump, himself, refused to confront Putin about something that he agreed had occurred?
The use of the double negative has made things even more obscure than before.
