President Donald Trump on Sunday raged against reporters during a media Q&A as he arrived back in the Washington area after a weekend at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.
First, he went off on a reporter who asked about Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), who earlier in the day warned that a new investigation into late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein could be used as a “smokescreen” to prevent the release of new documents in the case.
“Well, I don’t want to talk about it because fake news like you, you’re a terrible reporter, and fake news like you they just keep bringing that up to deflect from the tremendous success of the Trump administration,” he said.
Trump, who initially promised to release documents related Epstein ― a former friend ― has since fought to block them instead, dismissing the case as a “Democrat hoax.”
Just a few minutes later, Trump lashed out again.
