Donald Trump Mocks Female Reporter Again

President Donald Trump once again displayed his blunt approach with the press while aboard Air Force One. When questioned about his recent MRI results, Trump directed sharp remarks at a female reporter, suggesting she would be "incapable" of passing a cognitive test.

Trump emphasized that he had excelled in the cognitive assessment and indicated he was open to sharing his MRI findings. Last October, he revealed that an MRI he underwent showed "perfect" results, a disclosure made prior to his trip to Asia. Given that Trump is the oldest U.S. president in history, his health has remained a frequent subject of media attention.

During the exchange, a reporter inquired about the focus of the MRI. Trump responded, "I have no idea. It was just an MRI. It wasnt the brain because I took a cognitive test and I aced it. I got a perfect mark, which you would be incapable of doing." He then directed a similar comment to another reporter, saying, "You too."

He also criticized NewsNation, stating, "Failing. Failing NewsNation. NewsNation is doing lousy, by the way," when asked to release his MRI results.

This is not the first instance of Trump making disparaging remarks toward female journalists. Previously, he called a New York Times columnist unattractive after she wrote about his health and fatigue. In another incident, when a female reporter questioned the administrations vetting process, he asked, "Are you stupid? Are you a stupid person?"

A White House spokeswoman commented to Newsweek that the president has "never been politically correct" and that his directness reflects the transparency voters supported. She added that the remarks are not about gender but stem from his declining trust in the media.
