Why reporters don’t walk out when Trump insults them

Brian Stelter asks: Why don't they just walk out when they're insulted? ABC White House correspondent Jonathan Karl, author of "Front Row at The Trump Show, says he gets asked that question often. "As reporters, our job is to be there," he says. "The insults don't matter. Who cares?" He says "we are there to try to get the facts and to put the questions to those who are in power in this country."

  1. I’m looking at these reporters and knowing that all of the reporters who ask so-called “hard questions” would be booted out of the briefings if they put the “President” to task. The questions really skirt around the issues, or only try to address what they truly want to hold him accountable for. He seldom allows the journos to finish the question, either insults or deflects, then moves on to the next journo. It’s deplorable, and something we just don’t see where I’m from. Please use the 25th Amendment to remove this monster ASAP.

    1. @Grant Houle I’ve had no reason to vote for Biden. In 40 years I have always considered him unelectable. He lost twice even when he had his wits about him. Now he is useless.

    2. @Robert Clawson Why didn’t trump raping a 13 yr old girl at Epstein’s party get more coverage ?

    3. @Grant Houle When the DNC selected Clinton they elected Trump. When the DNC selected Biden they elected Trump. It’s simple. Clinton and Biden are corrupt garbage with a capital C.

  2. I wish they would just play a video of him saying something back to him….quoting him gives him the option to say that’s not what he said

  3. I would not give him the satisfaction of watching me walk out which is what He wants them to do giving him more reason to say something even more ludacris than what he just said.

    1. Manged to miss an entire education after the 4th grade, huh? It’s “ludicrous and “his” isn’t capitalized. Standard-issue sub-literate ‘Murkan cipher.

  4. Because triggering Spanky Bonespurs on live tv is one of the main perks of being a press room journalist. Why would you want to miss out on Spanky losing it?

    1. Oh dear Goddess,please dont put the word “spank(y)” and Trump in the same sentence cuz eww. So much eww. I may’ve just thrown up in my mouth a little. 😱😵🤢

  5. People watch the briefings like they slow down to stare at a train wreck… I just watch to see the IDIOT self destruct , and he rarely disappoints

    1. @Michelle Kowalski you’re right he didn’t say Clorox he said disinfectant. Just in case you don’t know it, since you’re a trump follower, you can’t inject any type of disinfectant

    2. SouthSide Chicago Stupid you jackass, it’s spelled S T U P I D if you’re going to correct someone’s spelling please make sure you know how to spell it yourself… F-ING Republicunts🤯

    3. YOU MUST BE SPEAKING OF OF THE REPORTERS SELF DESTRUCTING, CUZ HE MAKES YOU BELOVED ONES LOOK STUPID

    1. You bet. And they don’t ask certain questions because they would lose their jobs. And especially, they don’t ask the wrong questions when they get an interview because they want more interviews and to get invited to the good parties and get the good salaries and live among the elite. Our “journalists” are nothing more than lazy socialites.

  6. I’m telling you now they will send a “Terminator” back for this guy only this time nobody’s gonna stop it….

    1. and as you recall terminators were sent by the bad guys. does your mommy know your posting things with her computer?

    2. d fobroy Terminator 2 Judgement Day – Obviously your trailer park cinema only ever played the first Terminator.. Make some sense instead of trying to talk down to people when you’re already standing in a 6ft ditch.
      Try harder.

    3. I see you’ve caught the attention of two of Trumps finest “literary” supporters. Maybe they’ve been injecting disinfectant again,..lol

  7. All you reporter’s need to follow up any question with. “Are you being sarcastic?” Trump just killed all his credibility claiming he was being “sarcastic” during a state of emergency.

  8. Question: Why reporters don’t walk out when tRump insults them.

    Answer: Because they are bigger people with more maturity than tRump.

  9. They shouldn’t walk out, they should talk past him and just ask questions of the experts and let trump just stand there with his thumb up his butt. If trump tries to dodge a question or berate a reporter then the next ones down the line just ask the same question and hold his feet to the fire.

  10. Reporters should never walk out. Just imagine every reporter asking the same question until he cracks!

    1. Dude they already ask the same questions over and over. If you watched the first month of all these briefings, and I mean actually watch them in full. They would ask a question, the president or someone would clearly answer it, cool. Next question. The following question would be on the exact same thing. Just worded different. It was infuriating hearing 85% of the questions were redundant.

  11. They should just laugh in his face when he starts spewing his BS. Nothing gets a narcissist more upset than someone laughing at them. They all have fragile, insecure egos

    1. Or not show up at all. Can you imagine him walking into an empty room because no one finds his BS interesting enough to listen to. Major ego blow to the old narcissist.

    2. “Fragile Donnie” can only attack the question’s source when he gets caught in another of his endless stream of LIES!!!!!!!

    3. @Marilyn Reno bro, maybe you can’t, but i still laugh at him (beside the death tolls couse him) vote for him next time again, i wanne see if he still can beat himself about saying something stupider then the last time

  12. Because if they walked out the next day the only “reporters” there would be from FOX, OAN, and Brietbart.

  13. “Why reporters don’t walk out when Trump insults them” is the same reason why, we who are doctors, don’t walk out when our patient insults us. It’s called being professional. For reporters, insults from Trump is news. For us doctors, insults from our patient is a symptom.

    1. @Jake Patients also insult and physically attack nurses as well – I was nurse (now retired) punched, spat on, scratched and certainly insulted – so many times that I’ve forgotten most.

  14. THEY SHOULD NEVER WALK OUT, BUT INSTEAD THEY NEED TO STAND UP TOO HIM AND CALL HIM OUT FOR HIS UNPROFESSIONAL BEHAVIOR AND BLATANT LIES ! 🤔

    1. actually, i beg to differ. if they all walk out then trump won’t have an audience in his briefings any more. Nothing feeds his ego more than good ratings.

    2. @JVee Veneracion EXPOSING HIM CONSTANTLY FOR WHO HE REALLY IS AND HOPING IT SINKS IN ALL THE AMERICAN PEOPLE’S HEAD, WALKING OUT WOULD PROBABLY MAKE THEM LOOK WEAK OR UNPROFESSIONAL ! 🤔🙏🏼👍🏻

    3. CAN SOMEONE OR ANYBODY TELL ME WHY ALL THESE LOYAL TRUMP SUPPORTERS STAY ON CNN NEWS VIDEOS, COMPLAINING ABOUT THE DEMOCRATS AND CNN BEING FAKE NEWS, NOW TOO ME THAT’S REAL INSANITY ! 😖🤪🤮😩😳😬👍🏻
