This reporter asks a legitimate, followup question—something the White House press corps doesn’t do all that often.

Trump isn’t used to this, and you can see how it gets under his skin.

Reporters need to do this more often, or at least come to the defense of those who are willing to do it.
“You’re a stupid person” — Trump lashes out at a reporter who presses him on the fact that the suspected DC shooter was actually thoroughly vetted before he was let in the US from Afghanistan

Trump has repeatedly claimed that gas prices have fallen, are at $2 per gallon, and are the lowest in two decades. Not surprisingly, he’s lying. The national average for regular gas stands at $3.055 today, almost exactly the same as $3.056 a year ago under President Biden, according to AAA. ⛽️
