“You’re a stupid person” — Trump lashes out at a reporter who presses him on the fact that the suspected DC shooter was actually thoroughly vetted before he was let in the US from Afghanistan

I think the White House press corps as an institution is fundamentally broken and is causing harm to democracy.

And don't even get me started about the Saudi journalist who censored all mentions of Jamal Khashoggi's assassination from her morning foreign pool report of Trump's meeting with MBS
At what point will the press corps, as a chorus, in unison, just shout back, “THATS NOT TRUE”!

What are we doing?

Why would anyone ever ally themselves with the U.S. again? I wouldn’t blame any nation that stops. We are untrustworthy.
Q: You said this suspect was flown in under the Biden admin. But was he granted asylum under your administration?

TRUMP: Uh, when it comes to asylum, when they're flown in, it's very hard to get them out no matter how you want to do it. But we're gonna be getting them all out now. *slams table*

Sorry, this particular declaration directly violates the Constitution, which applies to POTUS as to everyone else. It's a pristine example of megalomania at work. The sooner our Republic is freed from this traitor the more thankful loyal Americans can be.
