Donald Trump was called out on just one aspect of his never-ending BS and it was simply magnificent
You might already have seen today that the US economy tanked in the first quarter of the year and Donald Trump predictably blamed Joe Biden.
It fits into Trump’s well worn – and indeed painfully familiar – pattern of never-ending BS, and it was something that rewriter Andrew Feinberg, White House correspondent for the Independent, was keen to explore.
And it was simply magnificent (sound up!).
great question here from @AndrewFeinberg pic.twitter.com/yNA6isIYAn

Bravo that man.
And here are just a few of the many responses it prompted.
1.
REPORTER: You took credit for the stock market when it was doing well. Now it’s not doing so well and you blame Biden. But you’re the President; can you explain that?
TRUMP: Word Salad.
Shout out @AndrewFeinberg.

I feel like no one in this administration can answer a question. They’re asked a direct question, and they go off on a tangent, and say something unrecognizable, unrelated, and then stop talking like that ends it…

Bravo to this reporter who points out that Donald Trump tried to take credit for Biden’s stock market and is now trying to distance himself from his own failing stock market.

BREAKING NEWS: In a humiliating moment for Trump, a reporter reminds Trump that he took credit for the stock market when he first took office. Trump would absolutely hate if you reposted this all over the internet right this very moment. #TheCostofTrump

Trump is a malignant narcissist.
He tries to take credit for everything Biden did that was good, and now that he’s tanking the economy and destroying our country he’s going to try and blame that on Biden.
He’s psychotic. pic.twitter.com/omlOVa03yU

Trump’s attacks on the media are an attack on democracy itself. A free press is essential to holding those in power accountable, but Trump would rather silence them. #TheCostOfTrump

Finally, a reporter with balls to call Trump out on his bs.
