Trump Had A Complete Meltdown When Asked A Basic Question And His Response Was Unhinged
While traveling on Air Force One, a reporter asked Trump if he wanted to weigh in on the inspector general investigation into Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s use of the Signal messaging app to discuss highly sensitive military plans.
At first, Trump was unclear on the question.
“What is it?” Trump said.
“There’s an IG investigation into the secretary of defense’s use of the Signal app,” she said.
Trump got irritated.
“Oh, is that? You’re bringing that up again?” a miffed Trump fired back. “Don’t bring that up again. Your editor’s probably, that’s such a wasted story.”
The reporter moved on to another question.
But Trump’s critics weren’t ready to let him off the hook, with many urging reporters to keep bringing up the Signal scandal, in which national security advisor Michael Waltz inadvertently added Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, to a group chat on military plans in Yemen and other sensitive matters.
President Donald Trump on Thursday demanded that a reporter stop asking about the group messaging scandal involving members of his Cabinet and other high-level officials.
