(X & text) Trump is going down the press line calling reporters stupid

TRUMP: We have a ballroom that's under budget. It's going up right here. I've doubled the size of it because we obviously need that.

REPORTER: The price doubled

TRUMP: I doubled the size of it, you dumb person. You are not a smart person.

Q: You promised to bring inflation down. It's now at it's highest level in 3 years. Are your policies not working?

Trump: You happen to be a stupid person. I know you very well

But it’s part of Trump’s narcissism too. In Trump’s mind he’s the smartest person alive so anyone that disagrees with him must be dumb.

But also, it’s because Trump is a bully. He only punches down on people who can’t or won’t punch back.
