“You haven’t asked me one fucking positive question,” he said. “All of this. What about this? What about that? What about that? What about this? All negative.”

The president had been asked about whether Mitch McConnell should resign from the Senate because of his health issues. Trump responded by indicating that videos of McConnell struggling were a “disappointment to a lot of Republicans,” before noting that “Sleepy Joe gave pardons to everybody.” He then exploded, questioning why they were asking about the White House renovations so much, and griping that they hadn’t asked him about Venezuela. Time pointed out that they talked about Venezuela at length earlier in the interview.

“I don’t understand. I’m sitting here. I’ve done all this stuff,” Trump said. “I took the White House and made it beautiful again.”

Here's a positive question about his deeds that a reporter should ask:

Mr. President, how good did it feel to rape children?

    I've got a nice etrike. I haven't tried to get it on the train yet, but if I can I will be able to access most of Northern California, instead of the 30 mile radius around me

    Honestly I only use the car like once a week, and it's for a rehearsal I could probably take the train to

    I guess is depends on how busy your train system is. In my city we’re packed in like sardines during commute hours, and during those busy times those things create situations where people can’t get in and out and properly.

    Technically the train conductor and police are supposed to keep an eye out for that shit and make sure bikes don’t block aisles and doors, but they don’t and the wide and long bikes often block mobility when trains are packed.

    I commute with something pretty slim that easily tucks into the train racks.

    I was actually pretty impressed at his reflexes, TBH. Not that the job really requires it (or it usually doesn't), but he was pretty nimble there.

    I think donnie would take it full in the face and not even know what happened, since he's about half-asleep all the time. Dozey donnie, they call him. Everyone's saying.

    That question carries the possibility that he'd wiggle out and say something like, "the world would be much diminished without me!"

    Question should eliminate that route by asking something like "what is the most substantial benefit the world will see when you die?"

    He's only impressionable if you give him a compliment. How about "Stroke out already, pedo. Also why are you so handsome what's your secret?"

    That ought to do the trick. You don't have to mean it because I doubt he's ever received a genuine compliment from anybody who isn't already in the Trump cult in his entire life.

    One thing I learned growing up with an authoritarian father, you never challenge them, otherwise all hell breaks loose. I eventually learned that when dad's voice got that distinctive tone and volume that indicated negative emotions, it was best to get up and leave and go to my room. This doesn't work for a US President however, though it may work for a King.

    One thing I learned growing up with an authoritarian father

    One thing I learned about bullies is that they continue bullying until you stop them. I was fortunate in being able to train, and also getting my growth spurt a bit earlier than them. Because of those, the tide turned.

    And luckily my parents were decent people who never pulled any of that authoritarian shit on me. Sorry you had to endure that.

    One thing I learned, for some reason being a bully magnet, was: know your bully.

    Stopping them requires a different approach for each bully. Some respond to direct force, some respond to a lack of response, some respond to being verbally humiliated in front of their peers. I haven’t figured out the best one for Trump yet.

    Donnie seems to have all the traits of a narcissist.

    Ever try to get a narcissist to apologize in good faith (not the "I'm sorry if you took offense" non-apology, I mean) for something they did, and they know they should be ashamed of and that they know you know?

    Narcissists are great at putting on a big show, love-bombing people they just met in many instances, and people that are rather naive or unfamiliar with this sort of thing will be taken in by it, and could not possibly believe that person could ever be nasty or vicious.

    People that have to be around them a lot and try to nail them down on the veracity of something they are saying, or actions they took that they don't want to own up to?

    You'll see that narcissist act like a cornered animal. Everything will be turned around on the person speaking, and the person trying to nail them down? Lucky to get a word in edge-wise amidst the person talking/yelling over them, usually consisting of abusive language and even threats of violence.
