Donald Trump (Image by (Not Known) commons.wikimedia.org) Details DMCA | President Trump said the head of the Boy Scouts called his recent address “the greatest speech that was ever made to them,” days before the chief scout executive apologized for the president's remarks. Trump faced criticism for the speech last Monday, which many saw as inappropriately political for the jamboree setting. Trump denied to The Wall Street Journal that there was any “mixed” reaction to his speech, noting the standing ovations from the crowd. His comments to the Journal were first made public in a transcript of the interview Politico published Tuesday. “And I got a call from the head of the Boy Scouts saying it was the greatest speech that was ever made to them, and they were very thankful,” Trump said. |
