Your point was you thought he skipped words and that is what you did to me. Now you can try the pretzel trick again but it doesn't change that fact.There is no "even". It was an exact quote to what she said. She messed up. She then went on a rambling quoting someone else. I still can't tell where that quote ends and she starts spewing her BS again.
I was not trying to say that he skipped over words in mid-sentence, like I did. I was trying to be humorous by leaving words out of your quote.
My point was that Acosta, who is a journalist, is supposed to pass on to people what the press sec said. That sentence was not the crux of her statement, and IT DID NOT REFLECT what she meant to say.
