Trump claimed to reporters he didn’t make the offensive remark at the Oval Office meeting last week.
“No. I’m not a racist. I’m the least racist person you will ever interview,” he said.
He also said he was trying to get a DACA deal done, but Democrats were not helping. “A lot of things to talk about. We’re going to talk DACA,” he said.
When asked if he could make a deal, he said, “Honestly, I don’t think the Democrats want to make a deal... there are a lot of sticking points.”
The president was dining Sunday night with Rep. McCarthy at his golf club in West Palm Beach, according to news sources. McCarthy attended a meeting last week in which the president reportedly referred to Haiti and African countries as “shitholes.”
