It actually doesn't depend on when it was said. It was wrong. But, for the record, he said it in October 2016.

- dnh44 6y agoAccording to the OP he said Trump would be easier to remove than Clinton. The fact that Trump was not removed from office does not make the statement wrong.
- csallen 6y agoHe also said, "congressional Republicans would [not] automatically spring to [Trump's] defense, if he overstepped the line," which was clearly wrong.
- dnh44 6y agoI don’t think they automatically sprung to his defense though. It seems to me that the Republican establishment didn’t support Trump but that he was able to rally his base in order force their support begrudgingly. I believe the term that Trump’s base used for those Republicans was RINO, Republicans In Name Only. So the fact that this vocabulary existed among Trump’s base to me indicates that their support for Trump was not automatic.
