President Donald Trump ripped a CNN journalist during a Wednesday news conference before the reporter could even ask her question.
Trump took questions in the White House after hosting a roundtable discussion about Antifa with cabinet members and MAGA influencers. He made the remarks toward the reporter after taking multiple questions from MAGA-friendly media outlets.
The reporter began asking Trump about a ceasefire agreement in the war between Israel and Hamas.
"This is CNN speaking by the way," Trump announced to the room. "This is one of the worst reporters that you'll ever see. I don't even want to take it."
Trump waved his hand and moved to the next question.
