[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump is belligerent even with the easiest questions:

“Trump said he would meet with some of the families affected by the crash. Asked by reporters whether he would visit the collision site,[b] Trump responded: “What’s the site? The water? You want me to go swimming? I don’t have a plan to do that,[/b] but I will be meeting with some people that were very badly hurt — with their family member, obviously.””

Can’t believe someone was dumb enough to actually ask him to visit the collision site. He should’ve said oh You mean in the middle of the sky? [/quote]

Don't be obtuse. What do you think people mean when they talk about any accident site? How about for the Twin Towers? Are you going to crack a joke about how you can't because the building isn't there anymore? Your'e about as funny as Trump.[/quote]

It’s not obtuse.  If reporters want to be treated as professionals, they need to not ask stupid questions.  I was called out for asking a similarly stupid question when I was taking a journalism class in college right after 9/11.  I’m grateful I learned that lesson at age 20.  Clearly this reporter didn’t.[/quote]

That’s right, you’re an expert because you took a journalism class 25 years ago! Has the White House press secretary reached out yet to have you screen questions?[/quote]

I didn’t mean to imply I’m an expert—sorry if I did.  I have never worked as a journalist.  I am in no way affiliated with the White House.  No, I have not been contacted by the current or any former White House press secretaries on any matter—I apologize for giving that impression.  I meant to say that I was taught to consider my questions before asking them.  I thought that was a valid lesson in a college journalism course, not something that needed to wait to be taught until a journalist is questioning the president.[/quote]
