Donald Trump Rages At Reporter Who Refuses To Stick To 'Positive' Questions

Donald Trump Rages At Reporter Who Refuses To Stick To ‘Positive’ Questions (HuffPost)

The president launched a trademark diatribe in response to a line of questioning he didn't particularly like.

President Donald Trump on Wednesday once again ripped a reporter to their face, this time after they dared to bring into question the idea that his supporters are completely and utterly behind every move he makes.

Trump was taking questions during the unveiling of new flag poles outside the White House when CNN White House correspondent Alayna Treene asked him about the split in MAGA ranks over his increasingly hawkish backing of Israel in its war with Iran.

Treene began by noting, “Mr. President, some of your supporters are splitting on the U.S. response to…,” before Trump cut in and deployed his usual tactic of demanding to know, “Who are you with?”

Treene pressed: “So some of your supporters are wary of the U.S. getting involved in another foreign war, and some believe that we should support it.”

Trump claimed he “hadn’t seen that” and then went on a diatribe, saying:

“Do you ever ask a positive question at CNN? My supporters are more in love with me today, and I’m in love with them, more than they were even at election time.
