This is one reason why the press is held in such low regard. What kind of question is this for the president of the United States? If I was president I would not even have these circus's as they do not serve any purpose.
A better question would be what kind of president is this who has to be asked such a question?
the questions should be asked about basement biden - his son, how he's had 45 years to fix things and still bitching about the same old crap, about he and obama investigated trump, Benghazi and more

A loaded question or complex question is a question that contains a controversial assumption (e.g., a presumption of guilt). Such questions may be used as a rhetorical tool: the question attempts to limit direct replies to be those that serve the questioner's agenda.

President Trump actually takes questions from reporters. That's what happens when you hang around butt holes, you get crapped on.
Why are so many unethical reporters drawn to this kind of vitriol? Because Mainstream Media sucks.
My life might be so much simpler if I was as deliberately obtuse as some people.
Yeah, but the view is so crappy ... pun intended.

Congress chickened out and went on vacation. Cowards.
Disrespectful, pointless question that is about the reporter and nothing else.
He may ask POTUS any question he likes, it is the day after a very important diplomatic breakthrough, and this is what he came up with?
That reporter should go to work for People magazine; he really isn't capable of much else.
So, the consensus of the Trump worshipers is that it's all the reporter's fault for asking such a nasty, disrespectful question, because Don the Con can do no wrong.
Has anyone ever kept track? Maybe there have been more lies. Or are all lies equal? Is the "weapons of mass destruction" lie the same as an exaggeration? Would that one lie--told by several people-- equal 10,000 of Trump's absurd off the cuff exaggerations? Things to ponder.
Fair point - Bush claimed that Iraq had WMD, which led to the death of thousands of American soldiers. Perhaps he honestly believed it, in which case not technically a lie, although I find that hard to swallow.
In Trumps case, a much less consequential lie, he claimed to have signed the Veterans Choice Act, which was actually signed by Obama. No doubt he was referring to The VA Mission Act, which he did sign. So the first time he said it, you could call that a simple mistake, not a lie. Thing is, Trump is pathologically incapable of admitting a mistake, so he just kept on repeating it and when a reporter called him out in public, he walked away. Why can’t he just say “sorry, I misspoke.”? No one would hold it against him. But we’ve seen this same narcissistic behavior over and over again.
When asked for examples of other Presidents lying, many on this forum bring up Obama’s famous “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor”. I don’t consider that a lie because I think he really expected it to be true. But nevertheless, he publicly apologized for that back in 2013. Has Donald ever apologized for anything?

Lol.
And the consensus of NeverTrumpers is that this reporter actually expected an answer to his question.
Orange Man Bad.

Trump 2020. Because the alternative is awful.
