Fragile Former Guy Has An Enraged Meltdown When NBC Reporter Asks Him A Question

Indicted one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump is once again proving that he’s completely unfit for public office, according to Vanity Fair, which has obtained a recording of the failed ex-president having a childish meltdown on board his campaign plane when asked a question by NBC reporter Vaughn Hillyard.

Charlotte Klein of Vanity Fair reports, “It was March and former president Donald Trump was aboard his plane with a gaggle of reporters following a campaign rally in Waco, Texas. He started off in good spirits. But then a line of questioning from NBC News reporter Vaughn Hillyard, who suggested that Trump had in recent days seemed “frustrated” by Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s investigation, began irritating the former president. “Don’t ask me any more questions,” Trump said. About 10 minutes later, as Hillyard continued to ask about the investigation, Trump snapped, grabbing the reporter’s two phones and chucking them to the side, according to a source familiar with the matter. “Get him out of here,” Trump told his aides, according to a recording obtained by Vanity Fair.

The Vanity Fair report confirms another from The Guardian, which notes that Trump was troubled and angry by anyone daring to ask about his pending indictment in Manhattan.

“I’m not frustrated by it. It’s a fake investigation. We did nothing wrong – I told you that,” the former president said before proceeding to lash out at the NBC News reporter on the plane who asked if he was frustrated. “This is fake news, and NBC is one of the worst. Don’t ask me any more questions.”

Since the encounter with Hillyard, the Trump 2024 campaign has drastically cut back on media access to the former president, allowing only friendly media outlets to travel on the same plane with the insecure man baby.

The only reporters on Trump’s plane for last week’s trip to New Hampshire were from friendly conservative outlets: Henry Rodgers of The Daily Caller and Daniel Baldwin of OANN. Baldwin, in his write-up of the trip, wrote of the “warm” and “welcoming” former president, “It’s clear Trump values the opinions of everyone he surrounds himself with, whether he agrees or disagrees. He even turned to me and said, ‘You really know your sports.’”

Trump is still facing possible indictments in Georgia and by a grand jury impaneled by Justice Department Special Counsel Jack Smith.
