Monica Crowley comments on today’s hot topics:

President Trump tends to speak before thinking, but he needs to understand that no matter what he does or says, the press is going to jump all over him. To Trump’s credit he did walk back the statement about the KIA, but the problem with him is that he can never just say I made a mistake. He ends up shifting the blame to someone else and it’s really unattractive. 

When asked about Trump’s reaction to Puerto Rico, Monica had this to say. Trump is sending all necessary things to Puerto Rico, troops, medicine, food, support, it’s all on the ground so the president is actually delivering for this country, but to make his remark about saying we won’t be around forever for support came off as insensitive.
