Wow, #Trump immediately offending the very first #black #journalist.
Calling her rude, offensive, awful, nasty, hostile.
Accusing her of inviting him under false pretenses.
Complaining about a late start.
He is outrageously #aggressive to the journalists.
Wow accuses #KamalaHarris of “suddenly turning black” after identifying as #Indian prior. Absolutely false.
Says #Harris “could be” a #DEI hire.
Says #immigrants are taking “#BlackJobs”
FYI, #NABJ - is live #FactChecking #Trump on their website (scroll down)

FYI it was #RachelScott of #ABC that asked #Trump the first question. He continues to attack her & #ABCnews even when she isn’t the #journalist asking the question.
Appreciate the journalists who immediately & to #Trump’s face, told him that he was spreading #disinformation.
He claimed #Democrats want #abortion at 9 months & even killing the baby after it is born.
“Sir, that is illegal in all 50 states.”
[I mean seriously, why don’t *journalists* ever immediately push back on this BS? He’s been saying this crap for YEARS. Yet, this was the FIRST time I ever heard a reporter correct him]
That was a hell of a thing.
I now adore #RachelScott of #ABC even more.
This is how every #Trump interview & debate should be conducted.
After he took his seat, #ABCNews’ Rachel Scott asked, “I want to start by addressing the elephant in the room, sir. A lot of people did not think it was appropriate for you to be here today.”
She cited numerous false claims Trump made about #Obama & #NikkiHaley, along w/other remarks attacking Black figures & people of color.
#RachelScott added, “You attack #Black #journalists calling them ‘losers,’ saying the questions that they asked are quote, ‘#stupid & #racist.’ You’ve had dinner w/a #WhiteSupremacist at Mar a Lago resort. So my question, sir, now that you are asking black supporters to vote for you, why should black voters trust you, after you have used language like that?”
#Trump responded, “Well, first of all, I don’t think I’ve ever been asked a question in such a horrible manner, first question. You don’t even say hello, how are you?”
He attacked #ABCNews as “a fake news network” & “terrible.”
He called #RachelScott’s question a “very rude introduction. I don’t know exactly why you would do something like that.”
#Trump said, “And let me go a step further. I was invited here & I was told my opponent whether it was #Biden or Kamala*, I was told my opponent was going to be here. It turned out my opponent isn’t here. You invited me under false pretenses.”
[note the disrespect of referring to her by her first personal name]
Trump later repeatedly claimed that #RachelScott asked “nasty” questions.
A lot of journos & politicos thought #Trump shouldn’t have been given the platform.
But I gotta say, I thought it was brilliant.
He was totally exposed as the #weak, #racist, #liar that he is.

#ABC's #RachelScott asked re #Jan6 insurrectionists:
“My question is on those rioters who assaulted officers. Would you pardon those people?”
#Trump w/o hesitation: “Oh absolutely, I would.”
Trump repeated openness to pardon J6 insurgents:
“If they’re innocent, I would pardon them.”
Scott pointed out they were #convicted.
Crowd erupted into laughter.
TFG: “They were convicted by a very tough system”

The #Harris campaign statement re #Trump’s #NABJ appearance.
“The hostility Donald Trump showed on stage today is the same hostility he has shown throughout his life, throughout his term in office, & throughout his campaign for president.”
“Today’s tirade is simply a taste of the #chaos & #division that has been a hallmark of Trump’s #MAGA rallies this entire campaign.”
"Trump has already proven he cannot #unite America, so he attempts to divide us.”
#Trump’s interview ended abruptly as #HarrisFaulkner started to ask a question about #Project2025. Trump quickly posed for photos then left the stage.
#ABC’s #RachelScott explained they were directed to end the panel at the of the Trump campaign.

MVP #KamalaHarris will speak at the biennial conference of the prominent #Black #sorority #SigmaGammaRho in Houston around 7:30 PM ET tonight.
It’s the perfect place for #Harris, who attended an #HBCU (TYVM), to respond to #Trump’s idiotic & baseless claim that she is “suddenly Black.”

He just can't help digging his hole deeper...
@MarkRDavid @Nonilex If I could I’d bring him a shovel. Dig baby dig!
@MarkRDavid Probably filled his daiper too! Well, he is full of @Nonilex
@MarkRDavid @Nonilex He’s drowning! Won’t someone throw the poor man an anchor??
@MarkRDavid @Nonilex I read that as “he can dig diaper”
That's quite possibly true, as well.
@Nonilex It’s something they do to each other. The funny part is HE feels disrespected & I have no doubt gets beyond infuriated about it & assumes she will too. His narcissism can’t handle it. I don’t think she feels disrespected by it, that’s why she uses Donald.
@Nonilex@mhello how are you doing i would like us be your friend hope you
will accept as your friendasto.ai
@Nonilex The journalists have done a pretty good job of setting our expectation that they'll just grovel and roll over and paper over the liar's unhinged hate.
I'm delighted to see them do their jobs this time!
@Nonilex , that needs to be in Harris' campaign ads!
@Nonilex
Georgie Porgie puddin 'n pie
Kissed the girls and made them cry
But when the boys came out to play
Georgie Porgie ran away.
@Nonilex thank God we will be able to watch Kamala tonight. Helps to get the ugliness of DonOld out of our minds.
Wow. The universe lined up these two events on the same day.
@Nonilex Trump's handlers ended the interview abruptly.
Needs less "hostile" and more "creepy", "weird", and "whiny." "Hostiles" are bad guys worth fighting; "hostility" can be seen as strength.
What an embarrassment to humans! If I was in GOP, I would be asking him to step down due to his dementia.
In NH Gov. Sununu and Kelly Ayotte both stating they will vote for him. That is the only reason you need not to vote for them!
@Nonilex Just to repeat:
Trump. Is. Not. For. Law. Enforcement.
Trump doesn't believe he did anything wrong.
For psychopaths wrong & right don't matter - they're the same.
@Nonilex “They were convicted by a very tough system”
So he’s not tough on crime then. Got it!
