25. Probably happening all over social media, but MAGAites have been desperately swarming any posts

Nov 18

on Twitter showing the video of the boorish clod, claiming that Trump didn't say "piggy", he said "PEGGY", because a Peggy Collins works for Bloomberg.

Unfortunately for them, the journalist who had the audacity to ask Trump a pertinent question that even many MAGAites would like answered was in fact Catherine Lucey of Bloomberg.

Not only that, but the White House press office has now doubled down and defended Trump calling her "piggy":

MS NOW’s senior White House correspondent Vaughn Hillyard reported that the White House released a statement on the exchange as the video went viral on social media.

“This reporter behaved in an inappropriate and unprofessional way towards her colleagues on the plane. If you’re going to give it, you have to be able to take,” said the White House.

I look forward to all journalists from now on calling Trump any number of imaginative and insulting, if accurate, names, because "If you’re going to give it, you have to be able to take," right?
