And he is entitled to have that apology. Now, the billion dollar lawsuit - we know Trump. He loves a sort of headline, and he's a businessman. "If the BBC said, 'look, we absolutely got this wrong. We really do apologise. But you've got to understand that this is not our money. It's paid for by the British taxpayer' and we would have real problems. "And if the British government made it clear that they were very sympathetic to the request that Donald Trump should accept the apology..."
