President Trump Snaps Back At Reporter For Absurd Comments

President Trump became offended during a news conference after reporter Jeff Mason from Reuters dismissed his claims of voter fraud during the 2020 presidential election.

Mason began by asking President Trump if he would concede if the Electoral College votes for Biden.

“It’s going to be a very hard thing to concede because we know there was massive fraud,” The president responded, “Well, if they do, they made a mistake, because this election was a fraud.”

The president then snapped at the reporter, “Don’t talk to me that way. You’re just a lightweight. Don’t talk to me that way. I’m the president of the United States. Don’t ever talk to the president that way.”

Before the disruption, Trump had been making claims of election results showing Democrat Joe Biden “losing to Obama all over the place” in noncritical states, meaning Biden did not meet the election performance of the former president.

However, Trump did say that Biden’s vote totals passed those of Obama “in areas that mattered in terms of the election- in swing states.”

What the president seemed to be suggesting was that Biden’s vote totals in battleground states could have been manipulated.

No matter how you slice it President Trump always comes to the same conclusion, “This election was a fraud.”

'I'm the president of the United States, don't ever talk to the president that way.'

This isn’t the first time President Trump had a confrontation with Mason. In late October the president poked fun at the reporter for wearing a face mask inside the Oval Office.

“This is Jeff Mason,” Trump told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, “He’s got a mask on that’s the largest mask I think I’ve ever seen. So I don’t know if you can hear him.”
