Trump wants to find and prosecute whoever told media about bunker visit: NYT

President Trump demanded officials find and prosecute people responsible for leaking information about his visit to a bunker beneath the White House amid protests, The New York Times reported.

Trump's comments about the leak about the bunker come as the president has complained to advisers that since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic no matter what he does he cannot get "good" stories from the press, the Times reports.

He also complained that nothing he does is good enough, amid criticism over his handling of the death of George Floyd, according to the report. Floyd's death in Minneapolis police custody last month sparked nationwide protests over police brutality.

He extended the phrase a bit too long. Should be "He also complained that nothing he does is good." Good enough? Try actually doing something halfway decent and we'll see dude.

You want to prosecute someone for telling people you hid in the bunker. How about not being a damn coward and not hiding in the bunker instead of blaming the person who told the truth?

Heck, the fact that there is a bunker in the White House is probably classified.

Everyone hates his guts and are capable of doing this, even his own family because he's hated so much. They were probably laughing hard after he did this then he claimed it was for an inspection, I did.

deal over that aspect. Ramp up Trumps paranoia. All kind of comments like, "can trump really trust anyone around him if everything like this gets out?"

Someone from Secret Service (or "SS" as Trump writes it) went home and told his wife an amusing little anecdote about The Bunker maneuver. It was too good to keep between them. So like weeds, it spread.

That's why you should not be president of the United States of America.
