Donald Trump’s press conference in Dubuque, Iowa went off the rails fast on Tuesday night when Univision anchor Jorge Ramos started questioning the candidate even though he had not been specifically called on by him.
“Excuse me, sit down, you weren’t called. Sit down!” Trump shouted at Ramos as he protested, “I have the right to ask a question.”
“No you don’t, go back to Univision,” Trump replied, attempting to call on another reporter in the room. At that point, security physically removed Ramos from the room.
Moments later, another reporter confronted Trump about Ramos’ removal. “I don’t believe I ever met him, except he started screaming and I didn’t escort him out, you’ll have to talk to security,” Trump said. “Certainly he wasn’t chosen. I chose you and you’re asking me questions. He just stands up and starts screaming so, you know, maybe he’s at fault, also.”
“I don’t even know where he is,” he added. “I don’t mind if he doesn’t come back, frankly.” Later, when another reporter asked Trump why he won’t take “tough questions,” he referred to Ramos as “obviously a very emotional person.”
Ramos later returned to the press conference room where he was able to confront Trump directly.
Watch video below, via CNN:
I just heard this on Levin. Jorge Ramos left the country he praises and became wealthy spewing his progressive garbage and hateful racist diatribes.
Sphincter Buddies?
Watched it.
Trump ROCKED!
Trump could have said he would not take question from an ignoramus that can not tell the difference between a legal Immigrant and an illegal alien.
I thought he was a satanist and communist
Jorge was auditioning for a spot guest hosting on Me-Gyn’s show.
He won’t need any guests as he never lets anyone else talk anyway.
“Who gives a F what reporters think? They’re job is to be unbiased and ask questions. They made it through journalism school, that makes them qualified to ask questions and report on it, nothing more”.
BINGO
99% of the media can go to hell.
When the MSM starts trying to make hay out of this they should be asked why they’ve laid down and let 0bama exclude them from pressers and meetings, investigate them and illegally tap their phones and computers without a peep.
Trump made the reporter a story. Reporters ask questions out of turn at press conferences all the time. Every single time (and not just political pressers - all press conferences). That's not a story. But kicking them out for doing so? That's a story.
The problem is that post-Watergate, most journalists are in it to “change the world” rather than to merely report.
Do you know what is near extinction? AN INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER!!!
Maybe they’ll learn some manners.
Is that Ellen on the left ?
Is there a video or transcript of what happened?
Ramos is an extremely evil human being.
I have no doubt behind clothes doors Ramos much rabidly talk about destroying our Republic and transforming it into a decaying spanish speaking third world sewer.
Ramos should be expelled from our Republic.
Jorge wouldn’t shut up even after the reporter Trump picked was talking. Sorry but all the other reporters shouting usually shut up after another guy is chosen and starts asking his question. Not Jorge so.....OUT YOU GO!
It’s in the opening copy above
Tho I’m a Cruz supporter, this was a Reagan moment.
“I paid for this microphone.”
If ever a person is more narcissistic than Hussein...Ramos is it!
Beautiful. Terrific!
