“Shut up, piggy”.

He's also lazy, stupid and a coward. He can't answer their questions, so the only way he can think of to handle them is to start slinging insults at the questioner. And he is too thick to realise people see straight through it.

And for once it is not fake news.

How would asking questions be greedy?

The way his defenders are desperately twisting and turning to try to justify this are really almost funny.

It was the 'and anyway lots of people didn't like him!'
Oh well thats fucking ok then!...literally WTAF!!
I cant imagine what it must be like living in America, fir decent humans ! Im watching America to see what will happen, cos surely something has to??

I wondered if MGT was on his mind when he said it, and he has decided on "Miss Piggy" as her new nickname.

Trump? Reading a book? Apparently he has only read two books, his own 'The Art of the Deal' and the Bible and I doubt that he actually wrote the first one and read the second as he couldn't say what his favourite Bible verse was during an interview (apparently he loves them all). He is a complete philistine and proud of it.

On what planet is it acceptable for a grown adult to call someone a pig?
Never mind the president of the US.

@Bobbinog the name of the journalist is mentioned on this thread and in the news articles linked on this thread. But yeah, maybe he was just telling her that she was asking too many questions!! And maybe every other time he’s called women pigs that’s what he meant! Thanks for explaining it to us.

Donald Trump is the most thin-skinned cry baby that has ever been elected to political office. He literally has his political opponents and people who disagree with him arrested on trumped up charges.

He is surrounded by sycophants and liars. It's a weird and scary cult because reason and science have been thrown out of the window. His theme tune should be 'Lip up Fatty' by Bad Manners, rather than 'YMCA' by the Village People.

The only politician that is playing him at his own game in Gavin Newsome, the Governor of California and his tweets are hilarious and really get under Trump's skin.

I absolutely hate his guts and I should stop watching and reading about him but it's almost impossible to look away. There are no depths that he won't plumb. He obviously has a personality disorder that is nurtured and pandered to, rather than treated.

How do you know this? I thought no one knew the identity of the journalist?
Maybe she was asking loads and loads of questions and he was referring to that as greed, hence 'piggy'?

I still can't believe the same country could elect Obama - basically the most decent man in North America - and Trump, the very worst. I suppose Trump is part of the backlash to Obama.

He's a misogynistic bully. If he puts enough women on the spot like that he thinks they'll shut up and not ask the questions in the first place. He went after another female reporter, Mary Bruce, today.

It’s still not okay to call someone, particularly a woman, ‘Piggy’. Most of us learned that lesson by the time we were 6 years old, and he’s the elderly President of the United States. This isn’t a presidential standard but a reasonable, ethical person one.

It beggars belief doesn't it.

He was tame with his words? Piggy is hardly insulting?

Are you drunk?

In today's news...

"Trump Still a Cunt."

Every single President who preceded Trump would have been vilified for saying “quiet, piggy” along with 99% of his other sound bites. He is a lesser man than all of them.

Ah, so a reporter doing her job.

And why is 'Bloomberg' in quotation marks? It's the actual, literal name of the company, so doesn't require quotations marks. If you're looking to make your (incorrect) point, you really want the marks around 'media company.' HTH

I would imagine you're extremely familiar with all of her reporting then, so you can elaborate on her 'hackishness'?

I look forward to it.

He is a degenerate racist misogynist piece of filth. He has sexually abused women. He is a convicted felon. I dont understand why he isnt in prison. Surely if he is shown to be in the Epstein files and it can be evidenced that he participated in the crimes that took place then surely that has to be the end of him and he must be prosecuted and jailed.

If he’d been in any way a decent human being he would have received about as much mocking as any other president.

Even his own family members don’t like him. And criticise him publicly.

I read her post as meaning that we in the public are racist becuse our reaction would have been off the scale if Obama had said it. I agree.

President Obama was everything a leader should be.

It's he

The people who were genuinely distressed by Obama's non-traditional choice of suit colour are definitely upset by "shut up piggy", which among other things is indisputably non-presidential. And some people are upset (not necessarily genuinely) by anything Obama does and nothing Trump does, or vice versa, because of confirmation bias. And some people just need roubles to heat their Khrushchyovkas and buy pelmeni for their kids.

She is a hack for the corrupt media company 'Bloomberg' 😮‍💨
