Why is everyone always picking on this poor man ?
Because he does things that deserve it. Like calling a woman "piggy"
good answer
because he is ripe...? Or is it because he iS ROTTEN ...?
I mite go with the latter
Today Trump called a reporter from ABC a terrible person and then talked around her question without answering it.
He's a real role model for America, especially America's youth.
his empty threats are tiresome
and who is highly respected? Bin Salman? Why? Because he has billions of dollars? He's a murderer. that doesn;t command respect
I dont know why the media tolerates this other than for the money.
They are flirting with disaster.
He accused her of being "insubordinate" to the Arabian prince. Through Trump our country has lost its mind.
It's beyond belief. Who would ever have imagined that a President of the United States would sink this low? We learned a big lesson from Nixon, but there is really no comparison.
I just watched clips from this press gaggle on Medias Touch. This is one of trumps worst. At one point he disparages Khashoggi the journalist who was killed by the Saudi royal family.

‘Things Happen’: Trump Brushes Off the Murder of Khashoggi
A reporter asked Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman about the murder of the Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi. President Trump interjected.
I wonder how the rightwing conservatives would have responded if he'd said that about Charlie Kirk. Hypocrites.
Excellent point, that they won't respond to.
Oh, well, in that case I guess it was OK to dismember him.
They sure do.
Trump thinks this way, they'll fit easier into the wood chipper. Yea Don, HSIT Happens, especially since knumb skullz elected ewe

Opinion | Trump dishonors Jamal Khashoggi’s memory to woo Saudi crown prince
Editorial Board 5-6 minutes 11/18/2025
The United States government often advances its national interests by working with nasty people, and Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is one of the nastiest . It’s one thing, however regrettable, to deal reluctantly with him. President Donald Trump’s performance at the White House Tuesday was something else entirely: weak, crass and of no strategic benefit to America.
While meeting with the Saudi leader, Trump held forth with journalists in the Oval Office, as he often does. One reporter asked about the murder of Post contributing columnist Jamal Khashoggi in October 2018 . “A lot of people didn’t like that gentleman that you’re talking about,” the president responded. “Whether you like him or didn’t like him, things happen.” He added that the crown prince “knew nothing about it.”
These distortions dishonor Khashoggi’s legacy, stand at odds with the facts and are beneath the office of the president.
Exiled in Virginia, Khashoggi wrote on these pages about the Saudi regime’s repressiveness at home and recklessness abroad. This got under Mohammed’s skin. So, the CIA concluded in 2018, the crown prince ordered Khashoggi’s assassination. He was lured into the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul, where a hit team, including members of Mohammed’s personal security detail, used a bone saw to dismember him.
Mohammed, at the White House Tuesday for the first time since 2018, acknowledged the murder but denied responsibility. “We’ve improved our system to be sure that nothing happened like that,” he said. “It’s painful and it’s a huge mistake. And we are doing our best that this doesn’t happen again.” This was offensive and insufficient yet somehow better than Trump’s response.
During the joint appearance, Trump called Mohammed “one of the most respected people in the world” and said that they talk on the phone at all hours. Trump also upbraided a reporter from ABC News for asking Mohammed about Khashoggi. He called it “horrible, insubordinate and just a terrible question.” He added that the network’s “license should be taken away.”
The reality is that while Trump advocates peace through strength, he showed nothing but debility. No doubt other dictators took note. Legitimizing and defending Mohammed this way will embolden him and his ilk to mistreat not just journalists but any Americans — knowing that they’ll probably face no real consequences.
Trump has an unconventional foreign policy that can achieve unexpected results. See Gaza. But it’s possible to protect U.S. interests without insulting Khashoggi’s memory. It would be more effective to ensure that someone like Mohammed is held accountable, understands who the more powerful partner in the relationship is and comes back begging for forgiveness – not be greeted cost-free with an honor guard of black horses, herald trumpeters and fighter jets.
The relationship with Saudi Arabia still produces some benefits, but even in a complicated world, an American president should be able to respect Khashoggi’s legacy while conducting the messy business of statecraft. Forgetting Mohammed’s brutality and Khashoggi’s warnings is a choice, and Trump made the wrong one.
He was a member of the Muslim brotherhood who was on the wrong side in a civil war with no good guys.
Trump lavished praise on the Prince today, explaining the murder as "things happen".
Same to Charlie Kirk, then.
Surprised that they don't acknowledge that, huh?
Murder...and decapitation.
Trump is such a piece of shit. When he called ABC "fake news," she should have shot back with "fake president."
The woman he called piggy should have spit in his face, or at least told him off.
The press needs to start pushing back on his bullying bullshit. Trump likes to forget he's an employee, a temporary public servant, not the master.
I would love to see them push back on the POS, but they know they would never have access to him again if they did.
It might be worth it.
It would be great to see.
Well this crowd might just strap a back pack to her, tell her it's a good parachute and toss her out the galley door...
It should now be clear to everyone that Trump and the Trumpist regime want to end freedom of the press, as well as actively working to repress dissenting opinions.
yep, the good ole American way
by insulting her??? Seems to me he's the one who acted inappropriately
not 'Dirty Don', say it ain't so...
I thought right wing Republicans were demanding a return to civility?
Is the dismantling of the Department of Education because behavior like this is what Republicans want to teach children? Kids it's okay to call anyone you don't like names like "piggy" or anything Trump says.
That’s an attractive pig. Too bad Trump can’t say the same for himself. He is ugly from his his cankles to his tiny little black heart.
Her name is Peggy.
You can't make this up.
Hilarious. We all heard it. Don’t believe your lying ears, just pray there’s a Peggy nearby to pretzel up some logic.
prove it. The article says her name is Jennifer
Trump calls her Piggy, and he is god, so that is her name from now on.
I think the name in the article is mistaken.
Still doesn't sound like Peggy
Why was he telling "Peggy" to be quiet? Was she shouting ?
Her name is Peggy.
You can't make this up.
there's no confusion someone is trying to defend the orange monster....again
i'll have to disagree. Never seen as much confusion in this country, and it's been brought about by misleading propaganda, also known asz LIES, initiated by the GOP and their fealty to the orange pos they have allowed to trash ourcountry
I have to go look up the word obfuscation because that's what I think some one is doing.
Not you of course
i'll have to try harder then...
don't try too hard. I like you just the way you are
But some asshole on "x" said so it must be true/S
Well, no. It isn’t.
And yet you did, anyway. That, or you mindlessly accepted someone else’s lie.
He get's all of his opinions from the web site that used to be known as Twitter.
Geezus, here we go again. The same chain of excuses. He didn’t say it. He did but not in a mean way. You’re taking him out of context. He was joking. You’re only mad because you’re the real bigot.
etc etc
C'mon now, you can't take arguably the most powerful man in the world word's as stated, you knead sum brown don't knowzing shit, explane asz day, watt Trump is herd to utter, most every knight round his unstable table of discontent, that is meant, eggz actly as cheap as they R, cause Rotten is what Trump izz, as he tries to spit out Bubba jizz, cause he iz, what he izz
