President Trump puts out a tweet many people thought was a vulgar sexual innuendo. The White House refutes that by saying people’s minds are in the gutter. More from White House Correspondent April Ryan.

Lightweight Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, a total flunky for Chuck Schumer and someone who would come to my office “begging” for campaign contributions not so long ago (and would do anything for them), is now in the ring fighting against Trump. Very disloyal to Bill & Crooked-USED!

Mr. President, apologize to @SenGillibrand and all the other brave women you have insulted. Every time you do this, you degrade yourself and you diminish your office. Stop it. #unhinged #unpresidential #vulgar https://t.co/YCanKRlGMx
