CBS Reporter Paula Reid Asks Trump Question All Journalists Should Ask

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

CBS News reporter Paula Reid asked President Donald Trump a hard question on Thursday, one that more journalists should ask him.

At the end of a roundtable discussion with governors on the reopening of America’s small businesses, Reid tried to get the president to answer one more very pertinent question: “Why do you keep hiring people that you believe are wackos and liars?”

Here’s a clip of how the question was asked.

The question was, of course, a reference to Trump’s attacks on former national security advisor John Bolton, whom he called a “wacko,” a “dope,” “incompetent” and a “disgruntled boring fool,” among other epithets. Trump was reacting to unflattering disclosures in Bolton’s upcoming book, “The Room Where It Happened.”

11. One answer could be: Because he's a thug, he only knows how thugs work, and he treats them that way.

No matter what anyone was in a former job or career Trump only feels comfortable around people if he diminishes them. Thus to him all of his "subordinates" are thugs, or worse. Since he has no loyalty to them they are disposable once he decides it, and therefore subject to his anger and abuse.
