Longtime Democratic strategist James Carville said this weekend that Donald Trump may have just made “the greatest admission against interest in the history of the presidency.”
Trump acknowledged last week that he hasn’t been thinking at all about Americans’ financial situations as they deal with rising costs linked to his Iran war.
But, “it’s what lawyers call an admission against interest,” he added. “It’s the greatest admission against interest in the history of the presidency.”
Multiple Republicans initially pushed back on Trump’s remarks, including Vice President JD Vance, who said: “I don’t think the president said that — I think that’s a misrepresentation.”
