Michigan U.S. Senate candidate John James (R) told the Detroit News that his stance on President Trump hadn’t changed and alleged someone leaked audio of him detailing disagreements with the president to “drive a wedge.”
Politico said James made the comments during a recent video conference with black leaders when he was asked about issues on which he disagreed with Trump, who has backed his campaign.
Said James: “Plenty, plenty of issues. Everything from cutting Great Lakes funding to ‘shithole countries’ to speaking ill of the dead.”
