Wow. I am impressed. Seldom do we get a chance to hear or view a statement of such stunning hypocrisy. I stand in awe of this man's ability to blame others for his failings.
Old people like me remember John Sununu's 1991 classic excuse for violating
White House travel rules (which he should have known as Chief of Staff),
"Obviously, some mistakes were made." The passive voice conveniently evades
naming the person who made the mistakes.
It's always ironically humorous to see the twisting of language by someone
trying to evade and shift blame....
