Trump Humiliates Adam Schiff: ‘Looks Like He Got Hit with a Bat’

President Donald Trump humiliated Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) by taking a brutal swipe at the California Democrats during a press conference.

On Friday, while speaking to reporters in North Carolina, Trump blasted Schiff (D-CA) for skipping a scheduled trip to inspect wildfire damage in his home state of California.

Trump referenced Schiff’s appearance on television the previous evening.

The president stated that the recently elected senator looked like he had been “hit with a baseball bat” or “beat around.”

The comments were made in response to a reporter’s question about whether Trump was disappointed that Schiff did not join him on the trip.

“I was told that Schiff was going to travel with us to California,” Trump stated.

“I wasn’t thrilled, to be honest with you.

“And I saw him last night on television,” he continued.

“It looks like he got hit with a baseball bat or something.

“What happened to him? Something happened to him… it looked like he got hit.

“It looked like he got beaten around.”

The president further noted that he would ask White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt to look into what might have happened.

Despite his remarks, Trump indicated he would have been willing to have Schiff aboard Air Force One for the trip if the senator had chosen to join.

Earlier that day, while leaving the White House for Joint Base Andrews, Trump addressed questions about whether he had extended an invitation to Schiff.

“I don’t know. Is he going?” Trump asked reporters.

“I don’t know, I mean I really don’t.

“’Cause if he’s going to be there, it would be cheaper, but I didn’t invite him; somebody did.”

Schiff, who led the investigation during Trump’s first impeachment trial, issued a statement on Thursday explaining his decision not to participate in the trip.

According to the statement, Schiff opted to remain in Washington D.C. to attend Senate confirmation votes.

In a statement shared by Fox Los Angeles journalist Elex Michaelson, a spokesperson for Schiff said:

“Senator Schiff greatly appreciates the president’s visit to see the devastation of these wildfires firsthand and the invitation to accompany him, and regrets that he’s unable to join the president in Los Angeles due to scheduled nomination votes.”

The statement also emphasized Schiff’s commitment to addressing the crisis in California.

“Senator Schiff is committed to working with the Trump Administration, state and local leaders, as well as his colleagues on both sides of the aisle, to ensure that California gets the aid and support it needs to rebuild and recover from these wildfires.”

Trump’s visit to North Carolina and California included stops to assess the damage caused by recent natural disasters.

While Schiff’s absence from the trip did not go unnoticed, the senator’s office underscored his focus on ensuring that recovery efforts for the affected regions receive bipartisan support and adequate resources.
