'Try getting it out': Trump berates 'naive' reporter during interview
Business Insider ^ | 7/8/15 | Colin Campbell

Posted on 07/08/2015 12:28:19 PM PDT by jimbo123

Real-estate magnate Donald Trump just had one of the most contentious interviews so far of his 2016 presidential campaign.

Trump, who has a high-profile feud with NBCUniversal, sat down Wednesday with NBC News' Katy Tur.

And after Tur challenged Trump's argument linking violent crime to illegal immigration, he told her she should be better informed.

"Don't be naive. You're a very naive person," he said.

When Tur stumbled while referencing some statistics to bolster her point, Trump mocked her inability to get the question out.

"Try getting it out. Try getting it out. I mean, I don't know if you're going to put this on television. But you don't even know what you're talking about. Try getting it out, go ahead," he said.

At another point in the exchange, Trump mocked his media critics. According to video posted by Mediaite, Trump panned conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer as a "totally overrated person" and touted his own wealth compared to the National Review's Jonah Goldberg.

"You know, it's interesting. I went to the best school, got great marks, everything else. I went out, I made a fortune, a big fortune, a tremendous fortune," he said. "Then I get called [out] by a guy that can’t buy a pair of pants? I get called names? Give me a break."

Olbermann is one of those rare individuals in life.

He is such a complete, utterly pompous a-hole, that I find it remarkable that he hasn’t been beaten senseless many times in his life.

Another one that comes to mind is Bill Maher.

Why in the hell don’t Pubes mock and ridicule media members to their face every day? It is a winning tactic, when backed with facts and analysis. The Pubes are complete bait-takers, answering bait questions on their supposed merits when everybody in the room, especially the reporter, has zero interest in the merits of the question but only in the underlying bait..... It’s the MEDIA stupid! Personalize it and go after the individuals involved in this foul industry, one-by-one. Make THEM the news story.

“November 16th elections??”

Yeah - you didn’t hear? Voting is getting so crowded so the R’s are voting on the 2nd, the Dems on the 16th.

Why is it Trolling to comment against someone instead of for them?

Because you are on just about every thread having to do with Trump posting inane childish garbage?

And, lest we forget, Trump carries much which needs to be bashed.

But in the mean time, he is speaking the truth out loud regarding immigration policy and showing the idiot politicians on our side (presumably) how to put the smack down on a little twerp of a leftist reporter.

Trump should reopen his University, and give classes on how to handle the press to the basket cases running on the Republican side. The only other one of them who can dish out more than he takes is Cruz.
