Gruber apologized for his newly-resurfaced 2013 remarks Thursday, telling MSNBC's Ronan Farrow that they had been an “off-the-cuff” mistake, an attempt to lay out the way political calculations affected the law as it was being written.
“The comments in the video were made at an academic conference,” Gruber said. “I was speaking off the cuff and I basically spoke inappropriately and I regret having made those comments.”

Farrow suggested to Gruber that the underlying point of his remarks was actually “nuanced” and was intended to illustrate that in order to effectively pass Obamacare into law, the process needed to be “opaque.”
Gruber replied that he was trying to convey that laws that center on federal spending aren’t popular.

The only dork here is you, Jake, for buying this horseshit apology of his. He meant every word he said and he was correct. The American public is fucking stupid. He's just doing damage control for the White House now after putting what they think on public record.
