In a speech yesterday, Trump continued his full-throated argument that his Clinton graphic wasn't anti-Semitic.
So, on a day when the news cycle should have been about the Feebies giving a pass to Hillary, he kept this story going. Which is insane. Somebody with some smarts would have known that the thing to do would have been to issue a general denial and then just shut the fuck up and let the story peter out.
But no, that's not Trump's style. He's still got a chip on his shoulder about the "short-fingered vulgarian" insult of the 1980s. So you know he's not going to let this fade away.
Even though that would be the politically intelligent thing to do.

Doctor Who: You know, the very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common. They don't alter their views to fit the facts, they alter the facts to fit the views, which can be uncomfortable if you happen to be one of the facts that needs altering.
"issue a general denial and then just shut the fuck up"
Trump has the knowledge, he just doesn't have the ability.
