Donald Trump called a reporter WHAT during a press scrum on Air Force One over the weekend?!
So, on Friday, the President was flying from Washington, DC down to his Mar-a-Lago resort in south Florida for the weekend. During the flight on the official presidential airplane, the national political media was there, as is typical.
At one point — amid the ongoing congressional push to release the remainder of evidence against late billionaire and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and that man’s connections to Trump — reporters began asking the commander in chief about it. Because, as you’ll recall, in of those recently released emails involved in the infamous Epstein files, the late financier himself claimed “of course, [Trump] knew about the girls.” And THAT has reporters curious.

Trump started it off when first asked by saying this about Epstein on the flight down to Florida:
“I know nothing about that. They would have announced that a long time ago. Jeffrey Epstein and I had a very bad relationship for many years.”
Then, a female reporter off-camera — who multiple media outlets later identified as a Bloomberg News reporter — started to ask Trump if there was anything “incriminating” against him in the Epstein emails.
But before she could finish the question, Trump stuck a finger in the air, pointed at her, and said:
“Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.”
WHAT?!?!
FYI, “piggy” has allegedly been one of Trump’s favorite insults in the past. During his presidential campaign back in 2016, former Miss Universe title holder Alicia Machado infamously claimed Trump called her “Miss Piggy” and threatened to take away the title if she ever gained weight. So, the “piggy” reference apparently doesn’t come out of thin air.
Still, what an INSANE thing to say to a woman. Especially in a professional capacity as the president of the US!
You can see that whole press scrum (below), BTW:
