Trump’s Presser Made An MSNBC Contributor’s ‘Chest Tight’ And ‘Stomach Queasy’

Holy mother of HYSTERICAL.

On Tuesday afternoon, President Trump held a quick press conference, and it was incredibly heated. I highly encourage you to watch the entire thing, because DRAMA! Once again, Trump condemned the hate on both sides and got into it with reporters.

One particular exchange went something like this:

Reporter: You said there was hatred, there was violence on both sides. Are there-

 

Trump: Well, I do think there’s blame- Yes. I do think there’s blame on both sides. You look at both sides. I think there’s blame on both sides and I have no doubt about it and you don’t have any doubt about it either and- and- and- and if you reported it accurately, you would say it.

 

[Cross talk. Reporters shout questions.]

 

Reporter: Neo-Nazis started this in Charlottesville. They showed up at Charlottesville, they-

 

Trump: Excuse me.

 

Reporter: To protest the removal of that-

 

Trump: [Inaudible.] You have some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people on both sides. You had people in that group — excuse me, excuse me — I saw the same pictures as you did. You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down of, to them, a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name.

Reporter: Do you support white nationalists, then?

[Cross talk. Reporters shout questions.]

 

Trump: Well, George Washington was a slave owner. Was George Washington a slave owner? So, will George Washington now lose his status? Are we going to take down- Excuse me. Are we going to take down, are we going to take down statues to George Washington? How about Thomas Jefferson? What do you think of Thomas Jefferson? You like him?

 

Reporter: I do love Thomas Jefferson-

 

Trump: OK, good. Well, are we going to take down the statue? Because he was a major slave owner. Now, are we going to take down his statue? So, you know what? It’s fine. You’re changing history. You’re changing culture and you had people, and I’m not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists because they should be condemned, totally. But you had many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and white nationalists, OK? And the press has treated them absolutely unfairly. Now, in the other group also, you had some fine people, but you also had troublemakers and you see them come with the black outfits and with the helmets and with the baseball bats. You got a lot of bad people in the other group, too.

Cue NBC News/MSNBC contributor Gabriel Sherman.

I am totally rattled by that presser. Chest tight, stomach queasy. Feel sick.

He’s LITERALLY SHAKING. Probably.

This dude, David, is a journalist and willingly admitted that he vomited on election night. Also, he cried for 20 minutes Tuesday.

I vomited on election night. Today, I bawled for 20 minutes. The stress and anxiety brought on my a threatening president is overwhelming.

How is Trump threatening, you ask?

What did he threaten?

WELL DON’T ASK YOU NAZI! David doesn’t have time for you!

You can show yourself out. Thanks. I don’t have time for fascist sympathizers.

These people are journalists. Snowflake journalists. I can’t even deal with their inability to deal.
