President Trump placed this insensitive reporter in their place.

On Thanksgiving night, President Trump sadly announced National Guard member Sarah Beckstrom died after being shot by an Afghan national in Washington D.C.

Backup here if needed:

Shortly after Trump made the announcement a reporter asked Trump why he was blaming Biden over the suspect’s vetting process into the United States.

In response Trump grilled the reporter and called her “stupid”.

Fox News provided further details on Trump’s comments:

President Donald Trump asked a White House reporter if she was a “stupid person” on Thursday when she pressed him about the suspected murderer of U.S. National Guard member Sarah Beckstrom.

CBS News White House correspondent Nancy Cordes confronted Trump with reports that the suspect in the shooting of Beckstrom and Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe on Wednesday was vetted by the FBI and Department of Homeland Security before being allowed into the country from Afghanistan. She then asked why Trump accused former President Joe Biden of letting the suspect in with no vetting.

“Your DOJ IG just reported this year that there was thorough vetting by DHS and by the FBI of these Afghans who were brought into the U.S., so why do you blame the Biden administration?” she asked.

“Because they let him in. Are you stupid? Are you a stupid person?” Trump fired back. “Because they came in on a plane along with thousands of other people that shouldn’t be here. And you’re just asking questions, because you’re a stupid person.”
