President Donald Trump was "verbally and emotionally abusive" toward Kirstjen Nielsen when she was the secretary of homeland security, according to a new book by the Washington Post reporters Philip Rucker and Carol Leonnig.

An excerpt of the book first published by The Post said Trump "made fun of her stature and believed that at about five feet four inches she was not physically intimidating."

The president reportedly told others that Nielsen was "so short."

Trump would tell Nielsen, "Kirstjen, you're just not tough enough," and say she didn't "look the part" of homeland security secretary, the book reported, according to The Guardian.

That puts comic books in a bad light which is undeserved.

He told her she wasn’t tough enough because she wasn’t tough enough.
