Donald J. Trump Presidential Apology Database

The president of the United States this week asked NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace to apologize for something Mr. Wallace did not do.

This reminds me of something I have not done, which is to build a database of all this president's public apologies.

Related to that, I mean to build a database of everything he has said or written that includes the words, "I was wrong."

If you would like to contribute to this database, I welcome your involvement as I feel sure there will be many instances, each of which will have been reported by multiple news outlets. We'll need to cross-reference all those so as not to make it appear that the president has been overly contrite.

Our work is cut out for us. If you'd like to pitch in, let me know!

A noble task Jim, let me be the first to contribute....buffering......buffering.....buffering. I may have to get back to you. Still, the possibilities are....damn, sorry--thought I had one, but no.
