[VIDEO] Trump Goes off on Lauer, Guthrie: ‘You Misrepresent, Just Like Everyone Else’

Donald Trump appeared on the Today show Monday morning and lashed out at hostsSavannah Guthrie and Matt Lauer for “misrepresenting” his comments about SenatorJohn McCain’s war heroism.
Trump claimed he never denied McCain was a war hero. “You misrepresent, just like everyone else,” Trump told Lauer.
“Savannah started it by saying I said he wasn’t a war hero,” he continued. “If you would have let it run another three seconds you would have said — that I said he is a war hero. I have no problem with that. What I do have problems with is he called 15,000 people that showed up for me to speak in Phoenix — he called them crazies because they want to stop illegal immigration. They were insulted. They were great Americans.”
Lauer said that the network had played the entirety of Trump’s comments. He asked Trump specifically about his line that he “prefers people who aren’t captured.” Trump reiterated his bizarre theory that he meant nobody pays any attention to soldiers who didn’t end up POWs.
On Morning Joe this morning, McCain declined the possibility of an apology from Trump, but said the candidate did owe it to other POWs.
