Donald Trump shouted, “Shut up, you little whore!” » to a Bloomberg reporter

The American president is increasingly overreacting. When he’s not mocking foreign journalists’ accents or embarrassing foreign leaders, Donald Trump now finds time to insult journalists. The big man “Maga” orders a journalist to be quiet “Shut up, little whore!” While answering questions about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein on Air Force One last Friday, the video only emerged earlier this week.

The US President returned to Washington on Friday when Catherine Lucey, a Bloomberg economic journalist, asked him why he did not want to release the rest of the files on Jeffrey Epstein during his usual question-and-answer session with the press.

Annoyed, the billionaire pointed at the journalist: “Shut up, you little bitch.”. It didn’t take long for critics of the American president to widely broadcast videos of the shocking incident to a figure of this magnitude.

Occupy Democrats, a left-wing political organization, said: “He is the president of the United States. This is how he speaks to the press and other adults he is supposed to lead. America can do better! »

Really America, another American political organization, called the moment “disgusting” and described POTUS as a “disrespectful and incompetent person.”

“We have nothing to hide”

The irony of this is that on Sunday night, Trump asked Republicans in the House of Representatives to vote to release the Epstein files, in a remarkable reversal.

“We have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from the Democratic deception perpetrated by radical left-wing crazies to divert attention from the Republican Party’s great success… The House Oversight Committee can get everything it is legally entitled to, I DON’T CARE,” he wrote on Truth Social, just hours after Catherine Lucey’s question.

The journalist did not comment on this conversation, excerpts of which were shared on social networks. He recently shared a New York Times article about Trump’s ties to Epstein.

Donald Trump, who is a supporter of the threat, also told the journalist that Bloomberg should fire him when he met with the journalist on the tarmac after this flight.

Catherine Lucey, known for her expertise in American politics. She joined Bloomberg from the Wall Street Journal in 2017, where she worked as a White House reporter, covering politics, gender and domestic policy during the Joe Biden and Donald Trump administrations. Catherine Lucey also spent four years in Iowa, where she covered politics, after working for the Associated Press.

Not the first time

The Republican leader’s outburst of insults aboard Air Force One was the latest attack on Bloomberg, after he told other reporters earlier this week: “Are you going to let me finish my statement?” You’re the worst. »

Nor is this the first of his insults against our fellow Americans. The President of the United States previously used the term “Piggy” as an insult to describe Miss Universe Alicia Machado, who won the title at the age of 19 while Donald Trump was co-owner of the Miss Organization. “He’s amazing, I’m so scared of him,” Alicia Machado said during the 2016 presidential campaign. “He yells at me all the time. He tells me, ‘You’re ugly’ or ‘You’re fat.’ Sometimes he plays with me and says, ‘Hello, Miss Piggy.’ Terrifying.
