Trump calls female reporter 'so obnoxious' for questions on North Korea

Source: The Hill

BY JOE CONCHA - 06/15/18 10:36 AM EDT

President Trump called an CBS News female reporter "so obnoxious" while taking questions on the White House lawn on Friday morning.

"Quiet," Trump said to CBS correspondent Weijia Jaing while several reporters attempted to ask questions.

"She's so obnoxious," the president added to someone standing next to him before saying again to Jaing. "Quiet."




Jaing shared on Twitter that she was the reporter in question, stating that Trump told her to "be quiet at least five times" after calling her obnoxious, but did credit the president for answering "plenty of our questions."

Particularly women who dare to confront him. Yet he crumbles like a fortune cookie before despots and dictators.

of fact, I seem to recall that anyone asking you any 'tough' questions seems to get under your skin quite easily.

It's easy to criticize when you're on the other side of the fence, but when you are the target/president, it's a little different, eh? So much for being the 'great' negotiator, the 'I alone, can fix it all', the 'liar, liar, pants on fire' guy, eh?

Can't handle the heat? Then get out of the kitchen!
