Former President Trump on Wednesday clashed with an ABC News correspondent at a convention of Black journalists, slamming her “disgraceful” questioning after she asked why Black voters should trust him with another term.
Attack always attack has been his a successful strategy for him for so long that he has lost whatever meager ability to converse civil he may have ever once had. It’s fine though, I’m sure his cult of yes men will make him feel better.
What happened to his stupid fucking ear pillow?
Pretty quick surgical work.
How is it that not a single journalist asked him to name one thing he’s done for black people?
This was also my take-away from a similar article I read earlier. Why not simple ask, “such as?” or, “yes, please remind the voters what you’ve done for Black Americans.”?
From 2020 - https://www.vox.com/21524499/what-trump-has-done-for-black-people
•Trump passed a significant criminal justice reform measure, but his administration has worked to undo it
• Black employment gains before the pandemic were real — but not the result of Trump’s presidential term
• Trump’s claims on poverty don’t tell the full story of racial disparity
• The mechanism for funding HBCUs has very little to do with TrumpTrump does indeed deserve some credit with criminal justice reform. It’s arguably the only good thing he did in four years. It’s certainly nothing to give any credence to “best since Lincoln”.
The First Step Act, which passed with overwhelming support from Republicans and Democrats, takes modest steps to alter the federal criminal justice system and ease very punitive prison sentences at the federal level. It affects only the federal system — which, with about 181,000 imprisoned people, holds a small but significant fraction of the US jail and prison population of 2.1 million.
Essentially, the law allows thousands of people to earn an earlier release from prison and could cut many more prison sentences in the future.
Outbursts of uncontrolled anger are a common symptom of alzheimer’s/dementia beginning to degrade the prefrontal cortex and the brain’s emotional regulation.
Yep. I have an acquaintance with early-onset Alzheimer’s, and he has posted a lot about how emotionally disregulated he is. He’s fine in writing but he has warned his friends that if they visit him in person, he won’t be like they remember him.
Like during early COVID Trump was asked what he wants to say to Americans that were scared, he replied that the reporter was nasty or something similar. He can’t handle any questions that are outside of his line of thinking.
“I think it’s a very nasty question,” Trump said. “For you to start off a question and answer period especially when you’re 35 minutes late … in such a hostile manner, I think it’s a disgrace.”
It’s just his way of saying, “I’d rather not answer that.”
And NYT said the reason for the 35 minute delay was because he was having a hissy fit over live fact checking.
Aww… did Twumpy-wumpy miss his nap-time?
attacks
slamming
This wording paints a picture of physical violence. Considering how unhinged he is, it wouldn’t surprise me if he struck the interviewer like how Netanyahu struck that child for not kissing him.
That was Erdoğan, Netanyahu is a shitty politician, too, but let’s give credit where credit is due.
Yes, Trump, let the hate flow through you. Unleash your racism in a flood of glorious hate for all the world to watch on the television, and show the world who you truly are.
What do you mean “show who he truly is”? How is this different from the last 8 years?
