    Carl Paladino admits he wrote that FLOTUS should live with gorillas. But said he meant to just forward it to friends http://bit.ly/2i3K4xA

        So, should we expect an apology from him to FLOTUS? Or is he publicly racist now, too?

        He should stop with "he wrote that." Everything after that fact is irrelevant.
