Subhead: “The president melted down over a simple question on board Air Force One.”
“Donald Trump flipped out at a journalist for The Wall Street Journal on board Air Force One on Sunday.
“The journalist drew Trump’s ire after asking about talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin amid the U.S. president’s effort to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine over the former’s invasion of the latter.
“Trump asked which outlet the reporter worked for, a tactic he’s resorted to frequently during his second term.
“When told The Journal, he then railed: ‘That’s what I thought. Boy, you people treat us so badly. Wall Street Journal has truly gone to hell. Go ahead, yeah. Rotten newspaper. You hear me? What I said? It’s a rotten newspaper.’ . . .”
