RUSH EXCERPT:

COOPER: "To the notion of does he get it, I mean, if, in 2018, he is still backing stop-and-frisk. And now, he’s suddenly, you know, a late entrance to the presidential campaign and now he’s apologizing for something that, a year ago, he was backing. I guess, the question is, you know, is that a — does he really get it? Or is it just he knows he’s got to apologize because he’s running the Democratic Party?"
NUTTER: "Well, you know, that will always be left to individuals. I believe that he does get it. And there are so many of us who have worked with Mike over a lot of years. I’ve known him for a dozen years, and I have a pretty good sense of what’s not only in his head but what’s in his heart. And so it’s a rare occasion that an elected official, or a former elected official, upon reflection, stands up in public and on more than a couple occasions now, admits that they were wrong."
