It was a mistake, but not really much of one. It may still be very damaging, as any insignificant thing can grow into. I highly doubt it changes much of anything though. Ds will still vote for Ds, and Rs will still vote for Rs ... and the undecided are generally the ones who actually know what the candidates are actually saying, rather than just be herded off the cliff by whatever shepherd they've chosen to blindly follow. Though I do look forward to our first president elected by internet meme.

Basically it was mis-wording of a couple sentences that in context became clear anyways.

“If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that [alone]. Somebody else made [Others helped make] that happen. Those edits are more in line with the meaning of the surrounding statements.

"If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges.

...

The point is, when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together." Perfectly reasonable points.
