During a live broadcast from the White House, Donald Trump criticized a reporter who asked a question about a luxury jet that had been gifted by Qatar. The president called the journalist “terrible.”
While Donald Trump was speaking with the president of South Africa about an alleged “white genocide,” NBC News reporter Peter Alexander asked the president about a $400 million private jet given by Qatar.
“Why are you talking about that? Why are you asking that? You know what, you should get out of here,” said the Republican, clearly annoyed by the question.
“What does that have to do with the jet from Qatar? They’re giving a jet to the United States Air Force. Okay? And that’s a great thing,” Trump continued.
Despite having covered White House news for 13 years, the U.S. president called the reporter “terrible.”
“You really are… you know, you’re a terrible person. First of all, you don’t have what it takes to be a reporter. You’re not smart enough.”
Donald Trump didn’t stop there and told Alexander to go back to the studio and suggested that NBC should be investigated. “They’re terrible in how they run that network,” he concluded.
The president kept asking the journalist to be quiet, saying “quiet, quiet” before continuing the Q&A session.
