LOS ANGELES (The Borowitz Report)The Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling offered a total and remorseful apology for his racist comments today, telling reporters, Once I saw that Donald Trump was defending me, I knew I had done something horribly wrong.
Sterling acknowledged that he had turned a blind eye to a mountain of criticism from basketball luminaries and national leaders, but said that seeing Trump defend him on Fox News on Monday had left him shaken.
Look, I know Im not perfect, he said. But when Donald Trump takes your side, you have to take a long, hard look in the mirror and ask yourself, Have I become some kind of monster?

(35,015 posts)Since Sterling is a 1%er who believes everyone else is inferior to him, he considers Trump a peer and realized he'd better pay attention and do something. But he wasn't motivated by being genuinely sorry; he was motivated by his buddy calling him and telling him he'd better engage in damage control FAST or he could lose $$$$.
That's all that motivates these assholes. $$$$.
I know the OP is satire, but there may be quite a bit of truth to it.
