So Dick Durbin says Trump said it, Trump said he didn't, both are liars. Graham was non-committal, but two other GOP senators denied Trump said it. That leaves 4 real choices.
1. Progressives and Never Trumpers will believe Durbin despite his history of lying and pulling political stunts.
2. Trumpkins will believe Trump despite his history of lying.
3. Rational people will go he said she said and wonder why the word shithole is more important on the nightly news than half a hundred other things.
4. Cynics like me who see everything the parties and elected officials do through a political lense will point out that Trump could be on tape no saying anything and this sort of kerfuffle would still blow up because saving the DACA crowd at the cost of changing an immigration system that favors the long term Democratic Party demographic strategy to one that is at least party neutral demographically was never going to be allowed to happen. The only deal that Schumer and Pelosi will accept is a clean DACA bill with chain migration and open borders.
