Trump blasts reporter for asking about Epstein: 'No more questions from you'
He further insisted that the Epstein matter was a partisan hoax and fumed over the apparent media unwillingness to delve into Epstein's associations with Democratic figures.
President Donald Trump on Tuesday angrily chastised an ABC News reporter for asking about the Epstein files during his meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
"You ought to go back and learn how to be a reporter. No more questions from you," he said, angrily. He further insisted that the Epstein matter was a partisan hoax and fumed over the apparent media unwillingness to delve into Epstein's associations with Democratic figures.
"You're not credible as a reporter," he went on. "You should go and look at the Democrats." Trump further opined that LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman, a Democratic donor, ought to be under investigation.
"He's a sleazebag," Trump said.
The president also suggested that ABC News should lose its broadcast license.
"I think the license should be taken away from ABC," he said. "You're so wrong."
