Trump Snaps At Reporter Over GOP Bill Question At Capitol

During a press conference following a meeting with Republicans about his "big, beautiful" bill, President Donald Trump snapped at a reporter from NOTUS, a new nonprofit political news outlet. When asked about Rep. Andy Harris's comment that Trump had not adequately convinced hard-right party members to support the bill, Trump responded dismissively by questioning the reporter's affiliation with NOTUS and telling him to "get yourself a real job." The exchange went viral, drawing millions of views on social media and prompting NOTUS journalists to promote their outlet, which focuses on in-depth, non-partisan political coverage and is operated by the Allbritton Journalism Institute. This incident is consistent with Trump's history of confrontations with the press, especially when he receives questions he finds unfavorable. Trump's administration has also shown increased hostility toward the media, including restricting press access and engaging in multiple lawsuits against news organizations. The viral moment highlights the ongoing tensions between Trump and new media entities covering his political activities.
