Double Down !

It's Trump's pattern - say something hurtful or obnoxious or really politically incorrect - a term that he misapplies on a regular basis.  After his totally horrible comments about the Khan family he doubled down.  Now, after the Alicia Machado comments during Monday's debate, his follow spin in interviews, on Fox of course, Trump reiterates his comments about this young womn's weight.

The point here is that he is unable to apologize.  He is unable to admit any fallacy on his part.  He is always right, even when he is hurtful to others or improper.  How does this apply to a President?  A President need to hear diverse opinions adjust his or her views and actions as situations develop.  A President doesn't always get to declare that something is the way he or she thinks it is. 

Flexibility and ability to absorb others' views.  Now, does that sound like Trump?  Nah.
