Donald Trump Jr. verbally attacked an MSNBC reporter who challenged him to respond to a question about the separation of migrant families during his father’s presidency.
Trump Jr. was accompanied by his brother, Eric Trump, and his wife, Kimberly Guilfoyle when the incident occurred with MSNBC reporter Jacob Soboroff.
‘You couldn’t wait with your lies and with your nonsense.’
“I know immigration is important to him; I covered the family separation crisis closely. Will we continue to see policies like separating 5,000 children deliberately from their parents?” the reporter asked.
“You mean the Obama administration?” Trump Jr. fired back.
“You know, they didn’t do that, sir. Will there be a second family separation policy?” Soboroff replied.
“It’s M-S-D-N-C. So I expect nothing less from you. Clowns,” Trump Jr. replied.
“Even today, even 48 hours later, you couldn’t wait,” he continued. “You couldn’t wait with your lies and with your nonsense. So just get outta here.”
Video of the altercation was posted to the social media account of the Republican National Committee.
Prior to the argument, Trump Jr. defended his father’s record to Soboroff.
“What is that change gonna look like?” asked Soboroff. “Your father as president, I think you would even say, was a divisive figure. What’s it gonna look like in a second term?”
“I don’t think he was a divisive figure at all; I think the media created divisiveness around him,” Trump Jr. responded.
“They lied about Russia, Russian collusion, they said he was a traitor, they went after him in every which way possible,” he continued. “If the media actually starts being an honest broker, starts talking about the things that he did, the prosperity that he brought, the peace deals that he signed around the world, rather than the disaster that we’re living right now, I think you’d do everyone in the country a big favor.”

What an fing clown that moron reporter is. Thank you, Mr. Trump for defending your father against the constant lies. That, unfortunately, was more MSDNC that I needed.
Family separations and children in cages was under Obama!
MSNBC is nothing but a clown show.
There are thousands of underage individuals showing up at the border unaccompanied. Our government had nothing to do with separating them from their parents. And still other children arrive at the border with adults who are not actually their parents. Of course these bogus adults will be separated from the children they are using fraudulently. Every effort will be made to maintain real family integrity. But we have to ask: What is the the democrat party’s objective in allowing the unbridled invasion of foreign nationals into the United States? Is it to fundamentally change the nation’s demographics? Is it to undermine our national sovereignty? Is it tied to their globalist agenda?
