“You haven’t asked me one fucking positive question,” he said. “All of this. What about this? What about that? What about that? What about this? All negative.”
The president had been asked about whether Mitch McConnell should resign from the Senate because of his health issues. Trump responded by indicating that videos of McConnell struggling were a “disappointment to a lot of Republicans,” before noting that “Sleepy Joe gave pardons to everybody.” He then exploded, questioning why they were asking about the White House renovations so much, and griping that they hadn’t asked him about Venezuela. Time pointed out that they talked about Venezuela at length earlier in the interview.
“I don’t understand. I’m sitting here. I’ve done all this stuff,” Trump said. “I took the White House and made it beautiful again.”
Here’s a positive question about his deeds that a reporter should ask:
Mr. President, how good did it feel to rape children?
You haven’t done one fucking positive thing.
If the world is lucky he might do one soon.
Die?
The Trump The
No one who speaks like a complete fucking idiot could be an evil man
Thank you, Mr Worf.
Eat any good books lately?
That’s not quite true… he did have the flags lowered to half mast for a week when Dolly Parton passed. Besides that one thing, yes… you are correct.
I highly doubt that was done on his order. More likely, everyone was going to do it anyway and he just took credit. Because that’s all he ever does. Fucking useless trash. JUST DIE ALREADY YOU OLD FUCK!
I think he also passed an executive order that made abuse of an animal a felony. So like… 2 positive things and 100,000 negative things. Pretty much equal.
yeah, but his FBI is now gonna be staffed by animal rapists, so . . .
Once is a coincidence. Twice? Basically Gandhi.
…he shares a few proclivities with Gandhi, in fact.
Whats his angle?
It wasn’t kinky enough, had to make it illegal.
he was only doing that because of his own image and the negative press and backlash had he not done so.
The high gas prices are making EVs appealing, even without subsidies.

I’ve got a nice etrike. I haven’t tried to get it on the train yet, but if I can I will be able to access most of Northern California, instead of the 30 mile radius around me
Honestly I only use the car like once a week, and it’s for a rehearsal I could probably take the train to
Just avoid taking that on during commute time. Those things don’t fit compactly into the bike rack, and they piss everyone off during commute hours.
The fact that I exist pisses a lot of people off so honestly if they can’t make that small an accommodation, it’s on them
He thinks stealing their oil is an accomplishment
Their dirty oil that we can’t even use
Nah he can sell it and put it in an account in a qatari bank that the government may or may not control. That counts as we right?
he got COVID that one time…that was decent day
And then there was that time he “mysteriously” disappeared for a weekend or two weeks or something
Seeing that helicopter haul him away filled me with hope.
I would love for a reporter to respond that way to him, dead-pan style.
That’s just not true. What about the times he got nearly assassinated?
The “nearly” thing is the problem
Should ask what good does he think he has done. Let the man dig his own grave.
his mind lives in a fantasy world, he thinks he’s the best person to ever lived in the history of the world
“he made the white house beautiful again” didn’t you hear?
There’s already enough material out there that he’s dug to the other side of the globe.
C’mon, don’t be so pessimistic.
He increased the price of oil significantly and (fingers crossed) permanently.
This lead to the biggest push towards renewable energy powdered consumer devices than any president before him.
If you’re a good person all questions can be positive questions!
Did you even say thank you?
Mamdani absolutely knew what that video was going to be used for.
I just want to see one of these reporters, or anyone really, break decorum and just go off on this motherfucker to his face. He’s just a big fucking coward when it comes down to it. He just never has to confront it, and that’s a shame.
We need new shoe throwers
If theres one thing Bush Jr could do, it was dodge those shoes
W dodged those shoes like someone who’d had shoes thrown at them before.
Dodged those shoes like the only president dumber than him dodged the draft
You think W was dumber than Ford?
I would have to think about that one… I honestly forgot about Gerald Ford. You know who didn’t forget about Gerald Ford? Tom Brokaw.
I was actually pretty impressed at his reflexes, TBH. Not that the job really requires it (or it usually doesn’t), but he was pretty nimble there.
I think donnie would take it full in the face and not even know what happened, since he’s about half-asleep all the time. Dozey donnie, they call him. Everyone’s saying.
Shoes, pretzels, parachuting to his own premature victory party… That man survived a lot of self-inflicted danger.

Also pretty impressive was the Iraqi foreign minister blocking the second shoe. Quick reflexes
Trump knows how to dodge the draft.
At least Bush was fast enough to dodge it. I’m pretty sure Trump would have a Amberjack logo pressed into his forehead.
Yeah. And he’d probably doze off right after…
He gets booed anytime he’s in public.
Seriously. What are they going to do, kick them out of the White House Press Pool?
Oh wait…
It’d make my day if one of the reporters had replied “We’re not all here to kiss your ass, pig boy.”
I’d laugh if they started taking up mumbling stuff under a cough (but catching it on the microphone for later, unattributed) like “quiet piggy!” and “shut up donnie”.
Or… You’ve not done one good thing to ask about.
This is so much a standard part of the job. He not only can’t take it, he’s an idiot to be surprised by it.
Just fucking die already you Epstein class fucking rapist.
America will have decades or more before the rest of the world trusts them ever again, if ever.
Well there is that one theater play where Trump drops dead of a heart attack. No such luck in our reality, though.
I’m anticipating Kissinger-like longevity.
“Maybe you should do something positive to ask about, eh?”
“31% is at least still a positive number”.
Imagine a world with negative polling numbers…
One thing I learned growing up with an authoritarian father, you never challenge them, otherwise all hell breaks loose. I eventually learned that when dad’s voice got that distinctive tone and volume that indicated negative emotions, it was best to get up and leave and go to my room. This doesn’t work for a US President however, though it may work for a King.
One thing I learned growing up with an authoritarian father
One thing I learned about bullies is that they continue bullying until you stop them. I was fortunate in being able to train, and also getting my growth spurt a bit earlier than them. Because of those, the tide turned.
And luckily my parents were decent people who never pulled any of that authoritarian shit on me. Sorry you had to endure that.
One thing I learned, for some reason being a bully magnet, was: know your bully.
Stopping them requires a different approach for each bully. Some respond to direct force, some respond to a lack of response, some respond to being verbally humiliated in front of their peers. I haven’t figured out the best one for Trump yet.
I haven’t figured out the best one for Trump yet.
It’s in a field in Pennsylvania
Donnie seems to have all the traits of a narcissist.
Ever try to get a narcissist to apologize in good faith (not the “I’m sorry if you took offense” non-apology, I mean) for something they did, and they know they should be ashamed of and that they know you know?
Narcissists are great at putting on a big show, love-bombing people they just met in many instances, and people that are rather naive or unfamiliar with this sort of thing will be taken in by it, and could not possibly believe that person could ever be nasty or vicious.
People that have to be around them a lot and try to nail them down on the veracity of something they are saying, or actions they took that they don’t want to own up to?
You’ll see that narcissist act like a cornered animal. Everything will be turned around on the person speaking, and the person trying to nail them down? Lucky to get a word in edge-wise amidst the person talking/yelling over them, usually consisting of abusive language and even threats of violence.
“I took the White House and made it beautiful again.”
As beautiful as a meth heads trailer.
Imagine thinking that ordering a renovation using tax dollars is some kind of achievement.
“Mr President, do you think the world will be better off when you are dead?”
That question carries the possibility that he’d wiggle out and say something like, “the world would be much diminished without me!”
Question should eliminate that route by asking something like “what is the most substantial benefit the world will see when you die?”
They’d probably arrest them and claim it was a threat
It would be fun to answer in a completely deadpan voice “That is correct Mr. President, I have only asked you negative questions, this is because they are the most relevant to your presidency.”
Don’t forget the Sir.
Quiet piggy.
“Any updates on when you’re gonna take a nap in the forever box?”
Let me guess - it was a woman.
I can’t tell because of the paywall, I will look for another source and edit this comment if I am wrong.
EDIT: I stand corrected
“You haven’t asked me one f—ing positive question,” the president told Time senior political correspondent Eric Cortellessa and editor-in-chief Sam Jacobs toward the end of the 75-minute interview conducted on Monday, Sept. 28. “All of this. What about this? What about that? What about that? What about this? All negative.”
here is the non paywalled article I read: https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/trump-drops-f-bomb-while-211548648.html
You can tell because he didn’t say anything sexist, or insult their looks
Here is the transcript of the interview.

The problem with ‘flooding the zone with shit’ is that there is an entire zone of shit to be clarified by people who have the job of clarifying shit.
