Waltz calls himself 'knucklehead' after past gaffe

“Look, I'll be the first to tell you that I've poured my heart into my community. I've tried to do the best I can, but I'm not perfect. And sometimes I get crooked. But it's always been that way. I'm going to get into the rhetoric a lot, but I'm going to talk about China because of the impact it has had and the changes it has made in my life. I've learned a lot. I've heard some criticism of this.” “Governor, to follow up on that, the question was, could you explain the contradiction?” “I said this. It's just that I was there that summer and I said the wrong thing. So I just do it – that's what I said. So I was in the middle of the pro-democracy movement. I was in Hong Kong and China, and I learned a lot about governing from there.”
