BREAKING: Donald Trump explodes when reporter asks him to give hope to terrified Americans
Asked by NBC News White House correspondent Peter Alexander what he’d say to Americans who are ‘scared’ over the 200 people killed and 14,000 sickened by coronavirus, Trump snapped: ‘I say that you’re a terrible reporter.
I think thats a very nasty question and i think it’s a very bad signal you’re putting out to the American people.’ ‘The American people are looking for answers and you’re looking for hope and you’re doing sensationalism. The same with NBC and Comcast – I call it Concast.Trump continued: ‘That’s really bad reporting.‘Let’s see if it works.‘Ive been right a lot. but lets see what happens. you ought to be ashamed of yourself.’
Pressed by another reporter to offer hope to Americans about coronavirus, which has so far infected at least 16,000 people across all 50 states, Trump insisted it did not do most people any major harm, and was likely less deadly than current statistics suggest.
