“After a brief rant about his interest in beautification, Trump shifted his focus from the issue at hand to the journalist who dared to ask why he’s so invested in diversions.

“It’s such a stupid question that you asked,” the Republican whined before suggesting that Scott might “understand dirt” better than he does. Trump said he considers Scott to be “one of the worst reporters” and a “horror show,” before adding he also considers ABC to be “fake.”

The president concluded, “A question like that is a disgrace to our country.”

A Gentleman has a Duty.

This is wrong.

We need to return to the days when our leaders could speak to the press as educated, intelligent human beings with some element of culture and dignity.
