Trump fumes amid impeachment furor . . . .. 8-O

President Trump on Wednesday grew testy with a reporter who pressed him about what he was seeking from Ukraine in relation to Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, demanding that the reporter ask a question to Finnish President Sauli Niinisö.

"Listen, are you ready? We have the president of Finland, ask him a question," Trump shot back to Reuters White House correspondent Jeff Mason. "Did you hear me? Ask him a question."

It would take someone really on their toes to turn to President Niinisö and say, "President Trump has directed me to ask you a question, President Niinisö; so, what do you suppose President Trump wanted the president of Ukraine to give him on Joe or Hunter Biden?"

I'm taking great delight in watching Chump unravel right in front of us. The wackier he gets, the more enjoyment he brings in his demise.

We'll have to rely on the system itself to keep us upright through this mess. Our government is stronger than just this idiot at the helm.

So don't do that, okay? Don't go out of your way to call him things like the leader of all imbeciles or make fun at how he spells moat "moot." it drives him bananas.

The reporter kept his cool.

MF45 still interrupted after Fin Pres was asked a question. Arrogant and rude.
