I absolutely love the interviewer. "Do you think he was referring to you?"
Yeah that was great how she just ignored his attempts to assassinate her character and deflect and she just kept on with reasonable questions. That one was definitely some covert shade haha
I don't get why tf he attacked her, though?
She asked him about his controversies instead of pandering and throwing easy questions. Every reporter or interviewer who has ever had the misfortune to have to interview him has been met with hostility for asking "difficult" questions. If you're not praising him, you're a horrible liar out to hurt his "stunning" reputation.
I mean, in this case in particular, she simply read him the shooter’s manifesto and asked him what he thought about it. Trump’s knee-jerk reaction is to defend himself because he’s committed so many bad acts.
Even easy questions don't get you off the hook.
Yeah. I mean, he could just have said that it was the lies of a madman and leave it at that. But no, he has to do the moronic thing and show that it gets to him.
Deflect, Attack, Reverse Victim Offender
He's offended any time someone acknowledges the mountains of evidence that he's a pedophile. He thinks in terms of good / bad; Loyal / disloyal. If you challenge him in any way, especially on his most shameful misdeeds, he sees you as attacking him viciously. It didn't matter that she made no statement about it or even asked a really pointed question. Just acknowledging that those files exist and he's in them is seen as an attack by Trump.
That's what animals do when they're backed into a corner.
It's because he's an arsehole.
this is news to people?
Apparently.
Nora O'Donnell: pedosayswhat
Trump: What?
