Social Media Posts Images Of Reporter's Face During Interview With Trump: "We Are All Jonathan Swan"

Social Media Users Post Images Of Reporter’s Face During Interview With Trump: “We Are All Jonathan Swan”

https://politicaltribune.org/social-media-users-post-images-of-reporters-face-during-interview-with-trump-we-are-all-jonathan-swan/

Axios reporter Jonathan Swan interviewed Donald Trump, and the clip aired Monday evening on HBO. Swan looked frustrated during the interview as the president was all over the map when he was asked direct questions. The reporter had to repeatedly bring Trump back to the topic as the president tried to change the subject. Swan’s facial expressions and his foot tapping were noted by social media users who took screen captures of the reporter during the eyebrow-raising exchanges. The thirty-eight-minute interview was a textbook example of a malignant narcissist trying to deny his own failures as president. Swan brought the receipts and called out Trump several times — but, he was obviously frustrated.

Allow the brain cells to go into stasis and recover from the assault they've suffered.

Kudos to Swan for not running from the room screaming, but I'm guessing he knocked back a few stiff drinks afterwards. Here's a link to the transcript if listening to Trump's voice makes you puke: https://www.rev.com/blog/transcripts/donald-trump-interview-transcript-with-axios-on-hbo
