'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."

I hear there are openings over at D.U.

The loonies on the left actually have a great deal in common with the loonies on the right. In fact Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump have more in common than Donald Trump has with what used to be called conservative in the US. Also the loonies here are just about as prone to use obscenities.

“LOL he is such a jerk. Maybe if he dances around and pulls out his hair plugs with both hands people will see what a great guy he is.”

Just another day of you being eaten alive by jealousy.

Trump has a message about illegal immigration and it seems both the eGOP and the Rats don’t want people to hear and think about it.

Trump deserves all of our support and respect. There is not one candidate capable of doing what he is doing. He is masterful at wrapping the media around his finger. For what he is doing, he is redefining the whole debate in a very positive way. Let’s see how far he gets. Right now he is crushing the media and we need to encourage him all the way.

Do you really think anyone should be jealous of the big buffoon? Do you have a crush on him? He makes me sick, kind of like Geraldo or O'Reilly.

What I would like to ask one of these jerks is, “instead of trying to get me to fall on a tough question, why aren’t you asking Hillary about those emails? Who does your network have working on that? Who’s working on Obama’s use of the IRS as a weapon? When is the special coming out on that? They will wet themselves. Remember, each member of the press is among the lowest-SAT group of any college graduates. And then, the TV reporters are the good-looking ones of those - need I say more. They can easily be humiliated if anyone wants to.

Post facts, citations, past quotations. But not ad hominems that serve no purpose and advance no points.
