    How embarrassing this is for Perdue and Cotton, who couldn’t “recall” what happened after the fact (in a joint statement that took until the next day) but ~remembered~ in time for the Sunday shows.https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/952601232211922945 …

        I mean, really stop and think about this. Cotton and Perdue are changing their story days later to defend POTUS -- basically now accusing two of their colleagues, including Republican Lindsey Graham, of fabricating the whole thing. Even by our new standards, that's not normal.

        It's been awhile since there was a good fistfight on the Senate floor. Durbin should walk up to Perdue on Tuesday and bust him right in the chops.

        Cotton held his line on #FaceTheNation. As Dickerson tested him, I wish he'd asked what "comments" Graham had "said his piece" about to Trump if it wasn't about "shithole".pic.twitter.com/1RYEhsLYQG

        My takeaway is that Cotton and Perdue need to be added to Bob Mueller's "Let's have a chat, shall we?" list.

        On the he used "strong" language side, why does NOBODY (particularly those who claim to know that "shithole" wasn't used) seem to know exactly what *was* said?!?
