President Trump hilariously smacked down a reporter from the Washington Post after he tried to bait Trump with a question about Russia ‘disrespecting’ him or something.

The President clearly thought the question was strange, before then asking the reporter what news organization he was with.

Trump’s response after he said “The Washington Post” was hilarious and he quickly moved on:

I think the question was designed to try and get Trump to say something that might upset Putin. But Trump was too smart for that and moved on from the fake news reporter before answering such a strange question.

Seriously, how would Putin be disrespecting Trump by attacking Ukraine? He’s began attacking them in 2022, while under Biden’s watch, and he’s been attacking them ever since. I don’t remember Biden ever getting such a question…

I should add that POTUS made a comment about the negotiations in Saudi Arabia this week between Ukraine and Russia, saying he thinks some “very big things” could happen this week. I really don’t think he was making a prediction, just being optimistic.

In unrelated news, Trump weighed in on the continuing resolution and the potential government shutdown, saying he believes Republicans will get it passed but said you never know, the government shutdown could still happen this weekend:
