White House correspondent April Ryan said Wednesday that she has gotten death threats after asking press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders if President Trump had considered resigning.
Ryan, the correspondent for American Urban Radio Networks, said on CNN that those who oppose the president have thought her question was “great,” while Trump’s supporters have been outraged.
“They’re angry. I’ve been getting death threats and we’ve been calling the FBI and I mean, I put one on social media and this is real,” Ryan told CNN.
“I asked a simple question … I did not point a finger, I asked a question and now my life is in jeopardy because of a question. But I’m going to continue to do my job,” she continued.
Ryan had asked Sanders during the press briefing Tuesday whether Trump had considered stepping down. Sanders dismissed Ryan’s question as “ridiculous.”
The reporter defended asking the question, which came one day after the FBI raided the offices of Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen.
Ryan said Wednesday that sources have told her that the possibility of Trump resigning has “been on the table.”
“That is not illogical, irrational. It is a real question on the table, the path [the] White House does not want to deal with because they’re trying to craft the picture, the winning image. And there is no winning picture at this moment,” Ryan said.
A Wambulance is on standby
Bullshit !
Liar
Is she considering resigning?
Yank her press credentials. This is not a “journalist” this is poltical activist abusing her access.
My ass.
Fake newser with fake news.
Why would he resign. He’s the POTUS, not the manager of a Burger King.
Sources = The voices in her head.
The left are the violent and stupid ones.
I always see them CLAIM they are getting death threats (I assume they mean from conservatives) but I only see the massive hate and rallies and violence coming from the left.
don’t make stupid comments like that here...
“It would please me to see April Ryan’s head on a pike.”
That’s a little extreme. I’d just like to see her move to a job commensurate with here “abilities,” which would be the drive up window at a Popeye’s.
This ^^.
Trump’s fault. Waiting for April to DEMAND he resign!
Someone post a photo of this ‘journalist’ and then the story becomes more clearly in focus. [I don’t know how to link to photos.]
Another bit of Fake News by a Fake Journalist
Utter BS, April.
Go bake a pecan pie, you nitwit.
We only hear about cases such as these because only liberals receive death threats.
