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.

Speaking badly about the boss's family relationships, especially to people who hate the boss, can have a negative effect on job security.

It’s a NATO pic from a few years ago. The German woman in the middle is now President of the EU.

Such a weak little snowflake should never have been put in such a position anyway...

So it really is Trump’s fault... He never should have hired her in the first place.

Lol, at least he said it to her face, and not behind her back, like a woman. Guess what gals, guys give each carp, to see who can take it and who’s a whiny drama queen. She failed.

she wasnt a good pick for the job. I know Trump had trouble getting people to want to work the positions and then getting them confirmed to work, but i didn’t like that he picked her. she was out of her league. not all women or men are up to par for any or all types of work or specific jobs.

“according to a new book by the Washington Post reporters Philip Rucker and Carol Leaning.”

WapPo reporters said that Kristen said that Trump said...

That's third hand info.

they look like the meet for bunko or whtever it’s called night - wine and laughs and gamesand complaining about their kids or relationships - no way defense or security. no wonder the world is in shambles and nothing gets truly resolved.

“Good rule, don’t hire women.”

Commenting on the China Agreement signing today. I was SO GLAD to see the over-achieving, more-than-competent, MEN on the stage with Trump. It’s good to know the adults are back in charge.
