Trump tells Adin Ross he wants to ‘fire’ Black journalist who grilled him onstage

Donald Trump said he would “fire” the ABC News journalist who grilled him about his past comments during a panel at the National Association of Black Journalists convention on July 31.

During his appearance on Adin Ross’s livestream on Kick on Monday, Trump was asked for his reaction to the event, which his campaign appeared to cut short by 30 minutes when it was clear that he led the session off the rails.

“This woman starts talking … about racism, and I said, ‘You didn’t even say hello to me,’ and I’m doing them a favor by doing this,” Trump told Ross on Monday. “I’m doing this out of respect to the Black community.”

Okay Grampa let’s get you to bed

Adin Ross usually sniffs the farts of the people he interviews. For real. That’s his thing. He interviews someone well-known, then he asks them to fart in his face as the finale to his live stream. I am not making this up.

I think the Trump camp only agreed to an interview with the king of live stream fart-sniffing because they are desperate to energize younger voters the way Kamala does.

I am deeply disappointed they cut him off before the end, where he would absolutely have asked Trump if he could smell his fart. Someone must have realized who Adin Ross was at the very last moment and panicked.

Wow. Dementia Don the RACIST rapist with 34 felonies that can’t complete a coherent sentence is really a special snowflake isn’t he? He’s very fragile, maybe it’s because he’s sooo old. He needs to drop out, it’s embarrassing.

He really hates it when a woman is anything but completely deferential to him.

Yeah that shit is fuckin weird

and I said, ‘You didn’t even say hello to me,’

It’s a media interview, you’re not coming over to her house for a friendly chat.

barsquid ,

I didn’t watch but based on Donald claiming she didn’t say hello I assume that she did say hello.

I don’t remember what she said, but it was a basic cordial welcome a journalist would give.

Edit: I can’t find exactly how he was introduced, but this is what he said after she asked him her first question:

“I don’t think I’ve been asked a question in such a horrible manner,” Trump replied. “You don’t even say hello, how are you.”

She didn’t say that to you because she wasn’t having a friendly chat with you, dumbfuck.

Found the whole thing that includes when they are walking out on stage: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgod-nqFEEc

Edit: There was a bit of hot mic somewhere nearby so you could hear a little bit before he sat down:

RS: “Hi Mister Trump, just take a seat over there, thank you.”
DT: “Uh, how are you? How are you?”
RS: “Good”

Music dies and mic turns on:

RS: “Mr President, we so appreciate you giving us an hour of your time. I want to start by addressing the elephant in the room, sir. A lot of people did not think that it was appropriate for you to be here today. You have pushed false claims about some of your rivals from Nikki Haley to former President Barack Obama saying…”

He has those weird psychological tricks, like standing funny, having a long tie, and the handshake thing. Getting people to say “hello, how are you” to him is probably one of those, and he’s upset that she sidestepped it.

Then Adin smelled Trump’s chair.

Step aside, J.D. Couch-fucker, and make way for Chair-Sniffer.

Starting to think Trump has a furniture fetish.

Furniture fetish by proxy

Ross — a 23-year-old streamer with a mostly young male audience of more than 1.4 million Kick followers and 4.4 million YouTube subscribers — fawned over the former president during a 90-minute stream and gave him a Rolex and a Tesla Cybertruck wrapped in images of the former president.

A dumpster for a dumpster fire.

ShepherdPie ,

This kid gave Trump a Cybertruck? That’s wild

HWK_290 ,

Cue campaign finance violations and ensuing endless litigation and appeals that ultimately goes nowhere slowly. Sigh

vxx ,

trump can’t even drive.

ShepherdPie ,

So you’re saying he’ll be using FSD and Autopilot?

vxx ,

Since he obviously doesn’t care about laws, he might.

While he’s quite dumb, I don’t think he would trust his life with this faulty beta feature.

elliot_crane ,

He seems to like Musk this month, maybe he will.

Tja ,

He has to like musk…

A Cybertruck with a special wrap that showed Trump right after he was shot.

Because that’s totally what I’d want, a Cybertruck with a picture of me bleeding on it.

Chozo ,

It's also been speculated that this is the same Cybertruck that he shot with a gun several months ago for a video, with the wrap covering the bullet holes.

This dumb fuck cheaping out and giving his idol a second-hand gift is funny on its own, but knowing that it might be full of bullet holes is just poetic.

Does he know that not everyone is working for him? Is this dementia or delusions of grandeur?

Maestro ,

Yes

He later said that “if I owned that network I would fire her so fast.”

Aww, poor widdle baby doesn’t own all of the media. 🥺

This may be a ridiculous statement, as are most he makes, but it’s still vital to recognize that what he’s saying is, should he make it back into office, he would do whatever he could to control the press. He’s already been on that since the beginning with his “fake news” bullshit.

Don’t get complacent. He’s dangerous.

Tja ,

But we are lucky he’s so, so dumb.

“won’t someone rid me of this troublesome reporter?”

Retribution. He’s obsessed with it. I want to say it’s weird but it’s actually scary.

Nougat ,

It's scary weird.

Trump thinks she was ‘Uppity’ I’ll bet.

Freeeeeedom of speeeeeeech for me, not for thee

These two weirdos are definitely banging eachother

Looks like a SNL skit

LostWanderer ,

If anything, this is a sign that Rachel Scott is highly employable to make that insecure orange wanker go off the rails! He’s a weirdo who desperate cultists want to get elected. Not worthy of being handled with kid gloves, grill his ass!

cheese_greater ,

They hate it so much when they can’t take away ur toys and necessaries. I love it!

LostWanderer ,

Same, I truly love to see these weirdos getting destroyed on TV. It won’t sway the cultists overmuch but general population will likely be, “I don’t wanna vote for that.”
