She's not the first one, there's been a lot of reporters who ask stupid asinine "when did you stop beating your wife" kind of questions that have nothing to do with anything. Thinly disguised politically motivated verbal assaults aimed at Trump to ridicule him, which have nothing whatsoever to do with the news.


It was just a month or so ago when the news media was ridiculing the president at these pressor's claiming that he was somehow at fault because he didn't do enough testing of the virus. Now that he's finally drilled home to these political hacks, that the United States has done more testing for the virus than any other Nation on Earth, suddenly to a witch like this woman, testing no longer matters.
^^^^This. All of it.

. He can’t handle face to face. He name calls likes a child. Why so different face to face? He is the President. He is suppose to be so intelligent according to himself. On Twitter and at his rallies and other avenues and speeches he is quick to call individuals all kinds of names. He is the pig. Why not face individuals. Why does he not address them with his stable genius speak. He is not capable of anything but pig speak. He is the biggest mud slinger I have ever seen. But also the most cowardly when it comes to facing anyone.

Whoever did his media training should think about a different line of work. Zero stars on Yelp for that firm.

The news media has been hostile to Trump for 3 and 1/2 years, and in the past two months they've been vicious.

I think it was Chuck Todd who asked the president to give him a number of Americans dying from this virus that the president thought was an acceptable number. The president just looked at him completely insulted but, he address the reporter calmly and said what an awful question, and that no American lives were acceptable. Trump then reminded Todd to blame China, as he should.

Now this stupid asinine reporter asked her dumb ass question and the president once again got flustered and said blame China. That's why we're here, that's why people are dying, because of China. But these reporters don't ever blame China, they hate Trump more than they dislike what China did to the world.

If trump had engaged with the rude journalist with equal rudeness, the response from some people would have been to call trump a bully or claim he was having a temper tantrum.

regardless of which way he responded, engaged with rudeness or walked away, he would have been criticized by the 'i hate trump' crowd.

This is the problem when schools closed, all the immature ignorant little children are home, and some of them are posting ranting, overemotional comments on internet forums

Horse hockey, he told the report "Talk to China" and he could tell she was Asian if not Chinese before she responded about "Why was that directed at me?" Occam's Razor, Trump is kid that idiot that would kick at you and then be the first to run to a teacher when you finally slug him.

I don't think any president could withstand the hateful slanderous comments that come from reporters disguised as questions, like Trump has been receiving for the past couple months. Well really for the last four years the news media has been disgustingly hostile and politically partisan.

Besides what the hell does this reporter have to do with China? Why the hell would she take Trump saying "talk to China," when we know the virus came from China, why would she think that that is somehow reflection on her? What an idiot.
