White House declines to apologize to Boy ScoutsBY BEN KAMISAR - 07/27/17 03:31 PM EDT
The White House on Thursday declined to apologize to the Boy Scouts after criticism about the political tone of President Trumps speech at the groups National Jamboree earlier this week.
When asked if Trump would apologize after the head of the Scouts penned his own letter apologizing for the presidents tone, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders deflected.
I was at that event and I saw nothing but roughly 40 to 45,000 Boy Scouts cheering the president on throughout his remarks, she said Thursday at a press briefing.

Does that idiot really think an 11 year old kid understood Trump telling them he was going to kill "this horrible thing known as Obamacare"?

He wouldn't apologize for cold-blooded murder, let alone a demented speech in front of children.
