    Georgia Sen. David Purdue and Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton issued a joint statement Friday. They say, “We do not recall the president saying these comments specifically.” They say, “But what he did call out was the imbalance in our current immigration system, which does not protect American workers.”

    Trump’s slur came as pro-immigration senators tried to pitch Trump on a deal to protect younger immigrants brought to the country illegally as children. Perdue and Cotton had travelled separately to the White House.

    Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois says Trump made the comments, as do people briefed on the conversation.

    The White House isn’t denying it, they don’t say that the president didn’t use this word.

    The Republican attendees don’t say that it’s not true (or that they would of noticed), they only claim “not to remember”.

    Some participants do remember. So whom do you believe?
