President Donald Trump went off on a reporter who asked about the Jeffrey Epstein files, which he vehemently opposed the release of until he claimed to support it all along after his meeting with Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) in the Situation Room didn’t pan out.
“Mr. President, why wait for Congress to release the Epstein files? Why not just do it now?” she asked.
Trump snapped and accused the reporter of being “insubordinate.”
“You know, it’s not the question that I mind, it’s your attitude,” he responded. “I think you are a terrible reporter. It’s the way you ask these questions.”
He continued, “You start off with a man who’s highly respected, asking him a horrible, insubordinate and just a terrible question, and you could even ask that same exact question nicely.”
Trump then went on to say, though it’s unclear what he meant: “You’re all psyched. Somebody psychs you over at ABC, they’re gonna psych it,” before adding, “Uhh, you’re a terrible person and a terrible reporter.”
