Trump’s Sharp 5-Word Comeback Shuts Down Reporter
Donald Trump didn’t hesitate when a reporter questioned him after a GOP meeting. The former president quickly turned the tables with a stinging five-word response once he discovered the journalist’s employer.
A Classic Trump Media Moment
Known for his unconventional style, Trump often handles media encounters with bold remarks. This time was no different. Following a “beautiful bill” meeting with fellow Republicans on Capitol Hill (May 20), he addressed reporters.
A journalist from NOTUS asked,
“Andy Harris said that you didn’t adequately convince enough people to vote for the bill?”
Trump fired back,
“Who? I don’t even know what the hell that is. Get yourself a real job.”
Ouch.
