Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump held what was billed as a "news conference" Tuesday morning at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, where reporters wondered if he'd apologize for the racist remarks made at his Madison Square Garden rally that labeled Puerto Rico as a "floating island of garbage."
But Trump never apologized.
Instead, it was like Festivus came a few months early for the former president, who showed up more than an hour late and aired his usual grievances in a low-energy speech before finally defending his racist rally as a "love fest."
"I don't think anybody has ever seen anything like what happened the other night at Madison Square Garden," Trump said. "The love, the love in that room. It was breathtaking. And you could’ve filled it many, many times with the people who weren’t able to get in… It was like a lovefest and it was my honor to be involved."
