President Donald Trump tore an NBC News reporter to shreds during a tense meeting in the White House.
As Slay News reported, Trump confronted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa over the “genocide” of white farmers in his country.
Trump held Ramaphosa to account for the brutal killings of white farmers in South Africa.
The president played a video exposing widespread public calls for the murder of white farmers.
“These are people that are officials, and they’re saying… kill the white farmers and take their land,” Trump noted.
However, during the intense confrontation, an NBC News reporter attempted to change the subject.
NBC News reporter Peter Alexander attempted to ask Trump questions about the Department of Defense accepting a jumbo jet from Qatar to serve as Air Force One.
“The Pentagon announced that it would be accepting a Qatari jet to be used as Air Force One,” Alexander asked Trump.
“What are you talking about?” Trump fired back.
“You know, you ought to get out of here.”
The question regarding the Qatari jet was asked immediately after Trump directed his staff to lower the lights and show video footage exposing the treatment of white farmers in South Africa during his meeting with the African nation’s president.
The Trump administration began welcoming white Afrikaners from South Africa to the U.S. in the past week.
They face “unjust racial discrimination” in their home country, according to the administration.
“What does this have to do with the Qatari jet?” Trump shot back at the reporter.
Trump then slammed Alexander for trying to divert the meeting’s topic from genocide in South Africa.
“They’re giving the United States Air Force a jet. OK? And it’s a great thing,” Trump said.
“We’re talking about a lot of other things.
“It’s NBC trying to get off the subject of what you just saw.
“You are a real … you know, you’re a terrible reporter.
“No. 1, you don’t have what it takes to be a reporter.
“You’re not smart enough,” Trump noted.
“But for you to go into a subject about a jet that was given to the United States Air Force, which is a very nice thing.
“They also gave $5.1 trillion worth of investment in addition to the jet.
“Go back, you ought to go back to your studio at NBC because Brian Roberts and the people that run that place, they ought to be investigated.
“They are so terrible the way you run that network.
“And you are a disgrace. No more questions from you,” Trump continued.
“His name is Peter something.
“He’s a terrible reporter,” Trump added.
The president then began calling on other reporters for questions.
