Trump slams Time staff during interview for not asking ‘one f‑‑‑ing positive question’

Trump said the interview ignored his accomplishments and White House repairs, then lashed out after questions about Mitch McConnell’s health.

  • President Donald Trump grew frustrated during an interview with TIME Senior Political Correspondent Eric Cortellessa, lashing out at journalists for asking "negative" questions instead of praising his accomplishments.
  • After being asked about the health of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell , Trump lost his cool and complained about media coverage, calling it "fake news" while engaging in tangents.
  • During the exchange, Trump claimed credit for "fixing the White House" and boasted about his handling of Venezuela, questioning why reporters failed to ask about his successes.
  • Shifting to pardons, Trump stated, "Sleepy Joe gave pardons to everybody," and complained he lacks the same latitude, labeling the situation a "disappointment to a lot of Republicans."
  • Separately, the family of Renee Good filed two lawsuits Thursday against the United States government, alleging wrongful death and conspiracy regarding her fatal shooting by an immigration agent earlier this year.
