    "summary": "Since 2015, Donald Trump has repeatedly answered questions or reporting from women journalists with personal remarks. Some were about their intelligence (\"stupid,\" \"not thinking,\" \"dumb person\"), some about their looks (\"ugly,\" \"piggy\") and some about their manner (\"nasty,\" \"obnoxious\"). Press groups have described the remarks as a pattern. These include the Society of Professional Journalists, the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) and the International Women's Media Foundation (IWMF), whose tracker listed 39 documented attacks as of October 2026. The White House has said the remarks have \"nothing to do with gender\" and reflect low public trust in the media.",

That week he called Kelly a \"lightweight\" in a Jan. 26 press conference and a Jan. 27 tweet. On Jan. 28 he retweeted a post calling her \"the bimbo that's asking presidential questions.\" He told CNN on Jan. 28: \"I'm not a person that respects Megyn Kelly very much. I think she's highly overrated.\" The dispute went back to August 2015, when, according to NBC News, Kelly \"pressed him at the first GOP debate on his disparaging remarks about women.\"",

He said she was \"not reporting\" the size of his crowds and repeated her name four times.

Fortune called the Miami remark \"the third time he has attacked her in front of a crowd.\" Reporters at the rally said a supporter then taunted Tur, and journalists answered with the #ImWithTur hashtag.",

        "why_it_fits": "On June 29, 2017, President Trump tweeted about the co-hosts of MSNBC's \"Morning Joe,\" who had criticized him on the show. He wrote: \"I heard poorly rated @Morning_Joe speaks badly of me (don't watch anymore). Then how come low I.Q. Crazy Mika, along with Psycho Joe, came ... to Mar-a-Lago 3 nights in a row around New Year's Eve, and insisted on joining me. She was bleeding badly from a face-lift. I said no!\" (PBS NewsHour). CNN reported that social media commenters noted he targeted both hosts but commented only on Brzezinski's appearance. Time reported that the tweet \"followed a trend of Trump singling out female reporters, often for their appearance.\" Deputy White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said at that day's briefing, \"I don't think it's a surprise to anybody that he fights fire with fire\" (NPR). The next day, in a Washington Post column quoted by CNN, Brzezinski and co-host Joe Scarborough wrote that \"the president's petulant personal attack against yet another woman's looks compels us to report that Mika has never had a face-lift.\"",

I didn't call you,\" after she tried to ask about alleged voter suppression (Washington Post). On Nov. 9, outside the White House, CNN's Abby Phillip asked whether he wanted acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker to \"rein in\" Robert Mueller. Trump replied, \"What a stupid question that is… You ask a lot of stupid questions.\" That same day, he called Ryan \"a loser\" and \"very nasty\" while suggesting he might pull more reporters' press credentials (Washington Post).",

I'm saying it to anybody that asks a nasty question.\" Jiang said, \"That's not a nasty question.\" He then declined to take a question from CNN's Kaitlan Collins and ended the briefing. CNN reported that Jiang was born in China and immigrated to the US when she was two, and that \"some critics said Trump's remarks toward Jiang were racist.\" CNN's chief media correspondent Brian Stelter said, \"It's racist to look at an Asian-American White House correspondent and say, 'Ask China'\" (Al Jazeera). The next day, asked on \"Fox & Friends\" whether Trump had challenged the reporter because she is Asian, White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said, \"No, that's a ridiculous assertion\" (Mediaite).",

He pointed at her and said \"Quiet! Quiet, piggy.\" Asked about the comment, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Trump is \"very frank and honest\" with reporters, adding, \"I think the president being frank and open and honest to your faces rather than hiding behind your backs, is, frankly, a lot more respectful than what you saw in the last administration\" (CBS News). A Bloomberg spokesperson told the Washington Post that \"our White House journalists perform a vital public service, asking questions without fear or favor\" (CBS News). On Nov. 18 in the Oval Office, ABC News chief White House correspondent Mary Bruce asked about his family's business in Saudi Arabia and asked Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman about the killing of Jamal Khashoggi. Trump told her, \"I think you are a terrible reporter,\" and said ABC's license \"should be taken away.\" CBS News reported that he accused Bruce of embarrassing the crown prince with her question and said the question was \"horrible\" and \"insubordinate.\" The Society of Professional Journalists issued one statement covering both incidents and called them \"part of an unmistakable pattern of hostility — often directed at women.\"",

He did not mention the co-author, Dylan Freedman (CBS News; Time spells the name \"Freeman\"). A Times spokesperson said, \"Name-calling and personal insults don't change that, nor will our journalists hesitate to cover this administration in the face of intimidation tactics like this\" (CBS News). White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson said, \"President Trump has never been politically correct, never holds back, and in large part, the American people re-elected him for his transparency,\" adding, \"This has nothing to do with gender\" (People, via AOL). On Nov. 27 at Mar-a-Lago, CBS News chief White House correspondent Nancy Cordes cited a Justice Department inspector general finding that Afghan evacuees had been thoroughly vetted and asked, \"So why do you blame the Biden administration —\" Trump answered, \"Because they let him in. Are you stupid? Are you a stupid person?\" (CBS News, Newsweek). CBS News reported both remarks together with the \"Quiet, piggy\" remark to Bloomberg's Catherine Lucey earlier that month, as the latest in a series aimed at female reporters.

        "why_it_fits": "On May 7, 2026, near the Lincoln Memorial, ABC News's Rachel Scott asked Trump: \"Mr. President, you are here against the backdrop of the war in a Iran. Why focus on all these projects right now with gas prices soaring?\" (Mediaite transcript). When she tried a follow-up, he said it was \"Such a stupid question that you asked.\" He added \"you can understand dirt, maybe better than I can,\" and called her \"one of the worst reporters\" and \"a horror show.\" The White House's Rapid Response 47 account posted the exchange with the caption \"@POTUS destroys ABC Fake News reporter\" (HuffPost). On May 11, the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) said in a statement that the remark about \"dirt\" \"landed as part of a familiar pattern in which Black women journalists are demeaned personally rather than answered substantively\" (theGrio). On May 12, on the South Lawn, MS NOW's Akayla Gardner said to Trump, \"You wanted [Federal Reserve Chair] Jerome Powell fired for cost overruns. How is that different than your ballroom and the reflecting pool?\" After he said the ballroom was \"under budget,\" she said, \"The price has doubled.\" Trump replied, \"I doubled the size of it, you dumb person. I doubled the size.\" When she asked about the reflecting pool, he said, \"You are not a smart person\" (MS NOW). White House Deputy Press Secretary Abigail Jackson said of the remarks to Gardner, \"This has nothing to do with gender – it has everything to do with the fact that the President's and the public's trust in the media is at all-time lows,\" as reported by The Daily Beast and quoted by Blavity. Blavity also reported that Rapid Response 47 posted a clip of the Gardner exchange, labeling her remark \"FAKE NEWS.\"",

Trump answered \"What a stupid question!\" When she asked, \"Shouldn't they be out campaigning, though?\", he said: \"What a stupid question. For Jennifer to ask such a stupid — she's a smart person. I knew her all the way back in the Iowa days when she said Trump's going to win, and boy was she right\" (HuffPost). HuffPost, Newsweek and The Daily Beast all reported it as the latest of his insults toward female reporters. Newsweek placed it next to earlier incidents: \"Quiet, quiet piggy\" to Bloomberg's Catherine Lucey, calling ABC's Rachel Scott's question \"stupid\" in May 2026, and asking CBS's Nancy Cordes \"Are you stupid?\"",
