    To give Bush his credit, he said that “won’t be fooled again” line because he realized he was about to say “shame on me,” and that would have been used against him for the rest of his presidency.

    It actually showed real on the spot adaptability.

      hence my entire comment? He realized halfway through what he was going to say and changed it. Trump said the dumb thing, THEN corrected afterward.
