Trump Campaign Official Objects to 'POC Liberal Women' Asking 'Stupid Questions' [View all]
Source: The Wrap
Jenna Ellis, the senior legal adviser for President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign, dismissed criticism of Monday’s showdown between Trump and two female journalists, saying “POC liberal women have been present at every one” of the coronavirus press conferences and have “asked stupid questions.”
“This is coronavirus press conference number, what, probably somewhere in the 50s? POC liberal women have been present at every one of them and asked stupid questions. Sometimes for HOURS. This is the first time he’s just walked off. Finally. You know nothing. Stop gaslighting,” Ellis wrote on Twitter just past midnight Tuesday morning.
Ellis was responding to an academic who took issue with Trump abruptly walking out of his own coronavirus briefing, refusing to answer any more questions, after a tense exchange with CBS’ Weijia Jiang and CNN’s Kaitlan Collins. Trump’s exchange with Jiang was particularly buzzworthy, as he told her to “ask China” about the importance of coronavirus testing and she pushed back, questioning why he asked her “specifically,” to do that. Jiang, CBS News’ White House correspondent, was born in China and raised in West Virginia.
