Oh, OK… he’s pissed because she called him on his bullshit.

Rather surprising behavior from Trump. He usually reacts so well to powerful, intelligent women standing up to him and calling him on his lies. I’m sure we’ll see a contrite apology shortly.

C’mon, Leslie–you know you can’t prove he knows anything! :thinking: :rofl: :rofl: :hugs: :mask:

“You know that’s not true,” the CBS reporter told him.

It’s unreal and so sad just how many people have conspired to make Trump look bad by lying about his many great, great accomplishments, second only to Lincoln, if that. Why won’t they just let him do his job, which is unreservedly loving America and doing everything he can to make and keep it great? It’s so, so sad, tremendous, bigly, strongly sad.

The media should have started doing this four years ago.

Sounds like someone grabbed Trump by the p*ssy.

Could it be that those ‘constant interruptions’ he complains about were follow up questions and offerings of facts and stopping him when went on tangents telling lies? Why yes. Yes it could.

No, he’s pissed because like everyone else in the far-left radical communist Jewish, er, I mean lamestream media, she lies about his many great accomplishments! I bet she’s a Chinese spy or working for Soros!

Nice teaser clip, but it doesn’t answer the question of whether they’ll show the actual point that he walked out.

Also, it’s clear in this clip that Trump equates stock market performance with “the economy.” Moron.

“Watch her constant interruptions & anger.” So looks like he did read the reviews of his performance at the first debate - but he doesn’t understand the difference between “tough questioning” and “attempted bullying.”

This is nothing, just wait until after the debate with a smart and tough female moderator running it. He will end up shouting at her, I hope she has a mike switch.

Oh, and screw you, Orange Anus, for running another superspreader event in NC.

You really think there’s any doubt whether they’ll show it? This is a teaser.

And I’m pretty sure that the media is intentionally having mostly women question him, because he hates women and fears smart and tough ones the most, and it really does bring out the worst in him.

Mango Mussolini, much like other actual and would be dictators, cannot tolerate dissent.

Trump walked all over Stahl in the 2016 post election interview. Perhaps he thought she had learned nothing from that low moment, and expected a repeat.

Was there ever any doubt? It had to be something like that, even without knowing the explanation.

He doesn’t like to be challenged on his narrative. He’s been bullying her and 60 Minutes in the media ever since, because he’s lost more ground by walking out.
