that or his diaper started leaking.
He rage-sharted.
I don’t think he’s capable of crying. But he was definitely sweating so much, that it certainly appeared that way. Also, he was so fucking red, you could see it through his orange spray paint!
I say this regularly on lemmy... he shows multiple warning signs of anti social personality disorder (psychopath). I don't know if they cry, but I've never heard of it
He cried multiple gallons, some say it was the biggest cry in recorded history.
I'm just glad someone kept pressing him instead of just nodding along with the senile bigot and getting to his next round of ballroom talk. Certainly gives more trust in this reporter.
It's about fucking time someone did.
Kristen Welker has more balls than half the rest of the media put together.
Boy is the bar low...
She did a great job. She could have pushed harder, rebutted a few things, defended herself stronger, but it was a chaotic situation, and she was trying to remain professional in the face of that entire circus happening in front of her.
She handled it far better than ANY journalist I've seen so far. I hope this emboldens others to push harder on him, as well as his henchmen, and call out their nonsense and propaganda every time. I think many in the media is going to get downright disrespectful after the Midterms, which they deserve.
Bullying MAGAs is not only allowed, it's Patriotic.
He ran over her like a speed bump, but like a dump truck at 90 miles an hour, it launched him so high into the air. It flipped him backwards, and he landed on his back and exploded INTO A GIGANTIC FIREBALL THAT EVERYONE GOT TO SEE
LMFAO
This is a lovely visual. Someone should animate it.
I’m sure I’ve seen it as a gif before, and I honestly spent a while looking for it, but I just couldn’t find it. Sorry.

He's used to Fox softballs. "Mr. President, how many more Americans have become millionaires since you took back office, and is that fresh strawberries I smell?"

At this point no reporter should ever take Trump seriously. All questions should be about his smaller than average hands or his academic struggles. Things like why he is attracted to prepubescent girls or how come he sleeps with porn stars while his wife is pregnant at home alone. You know, just the real things.
100%
What's left of his life on camera should be a humiliation ritual. But not the kind he likes.
This was one of the most entertaining things I have ever seen him do.
If you pay attention, he both tears off the microphone, throws it on the ground, and even stops on it as he waddles out.
What a fucking baby.
If Trump doesn't walk away from the interview, you probably are a shitty reporter that didn't do your job
He is such an embarrassment.
10 years too late for this, but better late than never. That was funny as shit. He such an absolute fraud (and pedophile, don’t forget that) and our fearless republican congress let this happen (don’t forget that either).
A funny question would have been to have him detail the end-to-end lifecycle of a California ballot. Then he could enlighten the world where in that process it all becomes fraudulent. It means a lot more than us, or worse yet - him, “just looking at it”.
His words are just a waste of calories. His existence should serve only as an example to current and future generations. And, finally, his grave as both a monument to greed, cowardice and negligence of duty. …Oh, and a urinal, naturally.

Hobbles off, there was no storming in that exit whatsoever.
Check the audio. The pressure of the chair was stopping him from shitting himself, so when he tries to stand up, his upward momentum is counteracted by the newly available bowel movement.
Waddles.
The entire thing was a classic example of MAGA incompetence. He wanted to make some point about farmers, so they set up in a metal pole barn in Wisconsin, with John Deere equipment and hay bales in the background. Surely Trump has recently bumped up his stake in Deere, one of America's most evil corporations.
Then it pours rain on a metal roof, on a metal building, because instead of having the best PR people on the job, they have MAGA PR people, which means they are incompetent by definition.
So he's already yelling to be heard over the hammering rain, getting impatient, and since he has all the emotional control of a billionaire toddler, all he can do is lash out like the bully he is at his core. I found that last move, where he grasped her shoulder, to be extremely weird. If he hadn't been on camera, he would have been beating her.
MAGA fucked this up, AGAIN, and so he never got to make his point with farmers, only highlighting that his big contribution to farmers was a bail-out for literally destroying the soybean industry in America during his first administration, which still hasn't recovered.
All that effort, and all it did was make Trump look stupid, angry, lying, menacing, bullying, demented, and worse. I watched it live on NBC, but later that evening I watched coverage of it on ABC. You know you've fucked up when the footage is so juicy that even the competition promotes it!
I saw that shoulder grasp as him trying to balance himself and her being the only object he could use. Y'know, because he's OLD, FRAIL, WEAK, and should be DYING in a NURSING HOME.
Only want to point out that if we're reviewing evil farm equipment corporations, I'd plant my flag on Caterpillar. Check into who supplies the IDF their demo equipment.

And the morons will praise him for it. Saying something like "Fuk yea you tell them there fake news illuminati scum drain the swamp!" While whistling through his remaining teeth in his trailer park.
Meanwhile their MAGA "Messiah" literally is associated with a pedo trafficker that has ties to people that literally control the world with solid evidence... Make it make fucking sense!
That was interesting to watch. Same old tricks when he's caught in a lie:
Double down: "There's lots of proof! I've seen it!"
Deflect: "And the California elections are rigged!"
Personal attack: "And your coverage is rigged!"
The idiot is so thin-skinned that he becomes enraged at anyone who questions his bullshit.

Trump, 79, behaves like a 2 year old.
Well...at least grampa was awake for this embarrassing appearance
time for somebodys nap
They’re gonna give him a stroke one day…
MORE INTERVIEWS YALLL
"our country can never be great."
His opponents will have a field day with that soundbite. It won't change any minds, but they'll have fun with it nonetheless.
That shit was un-hinged.
So out of character! (lol).
Again.
I'd rather see awkward questions asked of him while he's under oath and on trial.
And the interviewer he was crashing out at was a woman? What a surprise!
He is not in charge of a goddamn thing except his crypto rug pulls and other self enriching scams
That he had to lean on the reporter he was berating, while trying to run away from was priceless!
She is the most mild of reporters, tossing what are really softballs (for anyone that isn't a toddler, anyway) and the baby still had a hissy.
Can we send Roy Wood Jr or an equivalent comedian to do interviews now? Ya know, someone who will tell him to stop being a bitch.
He probably needed to shit and had to find a way to leave quickly.
