Correction: Trump did not apologize, a White House official tells me. He phoned the supporter, left him a message thanking him for his support, but did not use the words "sorry" or "apologize."

So, he has no interest in actually making a difference.

The Trump administration on Friday filed a brief with the Supreme Court arguing that transgender workers are not protected by federal civil rights law and can be fired because of their gender identity.

“In 1964, the ordinary public meaning of ‘sex’ was biological sex. It did not encompass transgender status,” the brief states. “In the particular context of Title VII — legislation originally designed to eliminate employment discrimination against racial and other minorities — it was especially clear that the prohibition on discrimination because of ‘sex’ referred to unequal treatment of men and women in the workplace.”

That’s why the fundraising pitch we received from Joe Sestak, the former U.S. Navy admiral from Delaware County who served two terms in the U.S. House and lost bids for the U.S. Senate in 2010 and 2016, was so remarkably brimming with enthusiasm. Sestak entered the Democratic field for president in late June.
“Moving on up!” the email opened, declaring, “The latest HarrisX/ScottRasmussen.com poll has us tied for 9th among 24 presidential candidates. Not bad for just seven weeks.”
A few details. That national three-day tracking poll put Sestak and nine other Democratic contenders at 1%. That was an increase for Sestak from his previous rating of 0% in early August. And those polls have a margin of error of +/- 3%.
