Lol. You didn't watch the press conference did you. The press conference was called specifically to comment on the inauguration. The dude made a specific comment directly addressing the media's coverage and reporting about the numbers of people there. There is no way on earth anyone who actually saw the press conference could call that an offhand comment.
Also, let's dispense with the idea that anything bad that Trump's administration does cannot be called the responsibility of Donald J. Trump. I've spent 8 years listening to the same stuff on the other side.
Curiously, is there any real statistics on the attendance of the inaugeration?
