The quote that trump made at his rally in Florida over the weekend, where he said that Jefferson attacked the press, Jefferson had made in direct response to the press accusing him of having an affair, and having children with, his slave Sally Hemings. (Which happened to be totally true) So he was just b**ching because he was caught doing something he shouldn't have been doing. Kind of like the direction trump is going in.
