‘What a Stupid Question!’ Trump Rages At Reporter For Asking About His Limited Campaign Schedule

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump was incensed by a “stupid question” about his campaign schedule at a press conference on Thursday afternoon.

After being called on by Trump , a reporter in attendance at the event noted that “You have not had a public campaign event for nearly a week now,” before asserting that “some of your allies have expressed concern that you are not taking this race seriously-”

“What a stupid question this is!” interjected Trump before the journalist asked why he hadn’t been on the campaign trail .

“Because I’m leading by a lot, and because I’m letting their convention go through, and I am campaigning a lot. I’m doing tremendous amounts of taping here. We have commercials that are at a level I don’t think that anybody’s ever done before,” replied Trump. “Plus, in certain cases, I see many of you in the room where I’m speaking to you on phones, I’m speaking to radio, I’m speaking to television. Television is coming over here.”

He continued:

Excuse me, what are we doing right now? She’s not doing any news conference. You know why she’s not doing it? Because she can’t do a news conference, she doesn’t know how to do a news conference, she’s not smart enough to do a news conference. And I’m sorry, we need smart people to lead this country. Because our country has never been in this danger before, both economically and from an outside- from an outside perspective, Russia doesn’t respect us anymore. China doesn’t respect us anymore. North Korea, Kim Jong Un liked me a lot. He doesn’t like this group. We. We are in great danger, we’re in great danger of being in World War III,.

“And I’m going out, actually, I’m going out to certain places to help certain senators get elected. Not even for me, I’m trying to help when I go out to Wyoming or when I go out to Montana, or I’m going to different places to help people,” concluded Trump. “And I don’t have to go there because I’m leading those states, as you know, by 35, 40, 50 points. I’m leading by record numbers. I’m going because I want to help senators and congressmen get elected. Congressmen and women get elected.”
