I mean - forget right, forget left, forget your opinion on Trump.

The president (any president) making such a statement is a ghastly error in diplomacy. You can like his candor all you want - but there are lines that when crossed simply damage your ability to engage in international diplomacy on solid footing.

From what I gather, this occurred behind closed doors in a venue where politicians typically use frank language with the implicit understanding that what is said there stays there. It's entirely likely that equally egregious statements have been uttered by others in the past with the understanding being honored. If true, Durbin has poisoned the well.

I don't think a high-profile supposedly bipartisan meeting about a hot topic falls under what is traditionally thought of as a closed door meeting. I doubt it is likely anyone else would say something so offensive under those circumstances.

I think Trump said it knowing it would get out, and appeal to his base. This thread apparently confirms the latter.

If something can corrupt you, you're corrupted already.
