An angry Donald Trump walked out of an interview with NBC’s Meet the Press host Kristen Welker after an extraordinary exchange in which the president angrily insisted–without offering any proof–that “elections are crooked and you’re crooked, and Meet the Press is crooked…and so is ABC and CBS and CNN.”
The interview, airing on NBC Sunday, turned confrontational when Welker asked Trump about his idea to use $1.8 billion in taxpayer money for a “weaponization fund” to compensate people who believe they were unfairly targeted by a federal government “weaponizing” the justice system against them.
TACO
He can’t even withstand softball questions in his old, soft age.
He’s done this literally forever. He couldn’t handle Ali G’s ice cream glove related questions like 30 years ago.
It’s frustrating how the right hasn’t figured out Trump’s formula. Unless, they really don’t want to.
Losing? It’s rigged. They’re cheating.
Republican who speaks out? RINO, low IQ, traitor.
Left? Stupid, terrorist, socialist, Insert Insult before first name.
Media that questions or doesn’t agree? Fake news, corrupt, low viewership, stupid person and insert insult to women.
Celebrity who doesn’t agree? Washed up, no talent, traitor, has been.
It’s the same thing every single time. Not once has it changed since 2016. Whenever there is a tough question or a disagreement, he can’t handle it. He hasn’t ever answered a question with a thought out response that either diffuses the situation, or actually counters the argument being made. He’s brain doesn’t work that way. It’s instant programmed to insult and disparage.
That trait usually reveals one of two things. The person is a flat out liar in what they are saying. They cannot formulate anything to get themselves out of it.
Secondly, the person is just stupid. Too stupid to figure out a way to put proper words together to debate the argument at hand. Five year olds do this because they haven’t matured enough. It’s understandable. For a 79 year old person, you could say it’s age. Trump, however, has been doing that for at least the last twenty-five years.
I have to chalk it up as a zombie mentality for the right. They simply hear and ask no questions. As I said, frustrating.
I don’t think they hear it at all. Anything unflattering or challenging is caught by the thought firewall at Fox/OAN/WTF and dropped. The bubble is comfortable and viewers rarely bother to step outside of it.
I have been convinced for a while that we could very easily get the orange dipshit to do a 180 on everything he claims he believes if someone were to suggest things in a way that made him think they were his ideas and just appease his ego.
But that would require appeasing the son of a bitch, and fuck that.
Mamdani got him repeating socialist stuff after just an hour that first time.
Petro of Columbia, his the target of the president’s handlers, turned him in his meeting as well.
“A weaponization fund to help compensate people who believe they were unfairly targeted by the federal government” eh? So every black man, woman and immigrant in America?
Congrats on doing your job like 6 years too late.
They’re best at doing it when there’s nothing at stake.
You’re either crooked or you’re stupid
I think he just described the venn diagram of his base
Por que no los dos?
With him smack dab in the middle.
Compost the Epstein class
In contrast to Trump, who is both.
Gas prices will come down as soon as the non-existent war that we already won is over!
Hopefully gas prices will never come down. That would be a disaster for the climate
Oh, I assumed she was calling him crooked.
Dude needs to look in a mirror
To be fair she did a terrible job, I’m not a trump supporter but her questions did feel antagonistic, which is fair, but it’s not surprising that Plump left and I would have done the same. Also I find it really upsetting that the obvious question regarding Iran is ‘why didn’t you negotiate a deal with Iran instead of using violence?’ getting him to address that put him in an awkward position where he needs to admit that he can’t negotiate without threatening war, which goes against his ‘no new wars campaign’ which would also open him up to questions of ‘the war has cost $X so far, that is a lot of money, why wasn’t it possible to use that money in a non violent way to negotiate peace and better relations?’
Wit. Antagonistic is the only way we should speak to war criminals who make extravagant claims without providing evidence.
What’s the point? He’ll say that her news media is against him unfairly and it’ll be good proof that he’s right even though he’s not, also if he decides not to talk to her again then it’ll make it easier to only talk to boot lickers
Because that’s her job
It’s her job to antagonise? You’re not very smart huh
Aww… what a delicate little snowflake
But imagine Harris with her woman emotions.
As a parent, it’s tough to restrain a child. I understand her frustration.
Kristin was probably like, my toddler acts better than this.
I’m surprised he didn’t accuse her of raping children.
It’s nothing but projection from this waste of oxygen.
“Also you’re fat and smell awful, falling asleep all the time when you should be working because you’re up all night posting insane rants online, with a cheap spray tan, and your hair looks like a piss-soaked tangle of spider webs. I’m done with this interview!”
Sad thing is that he’s such a moron and a narcissist that he probably actually believes this.
It’s DARVO
Deny
Attack
Reverse
Victim and
Offender
I honestly just don’t believe he’s that intelligent
I guess he’s been living that his whole life. Would make sense that it’s the thing he’d fall back on as his brain is starting to rot.
He’s just gifted that way
I really don’t think most practitioners are. They are just crafty enough to know how to try to freeze their targets with this kind of tactic.
It doesn’t take much intelligence to act on. It’s literally just “Nuh uh, you are” - the default retort of children everywhere.
Is there any audio or video for that?
happy cake day
Why do we always assume that the cake is happy?
Yeah. Reddit shit that I’d prefer people left behind.
glorious cake day
The cake is a lie
