President Donald Trump attacked a reporter during a press conference in the Oval Office on Thursday.
Trump was taking questions from reporters following a press conference on prescription drugs, TrumpRx and affordability when he became visibly irritated by press inquiries surrounding the ongoing Israeli-U.S. war against Iran.
The reporter asked Trump if he anticipated gas prices would continue to increase while the conflict continued in the Middle East.
"What do you say to the American people who question how much longer this will take? Obviously you know they're having higher gas prices," the reporter said.
Trump had a frustrated response and insulted the reporter to her face, dodging the question entirely.
"You're such a disgrace. Did you hear what I just said? How many years was Vietnam?" Trump responded.
Q: What do you say to the American people who question how much longer this will take? Obviously you know they're having higher gas prices
