President Trump proved once again on Tuesday there is no one better at handling the corporate media, and one woke reporter learned the hard way.
During a press conference on Tuesday at the White House, Trump announced the creation of an American AI company called ‘Stargate.’ This project, launched with OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank, will invest $500 billion in America and potentially create 100,000 new American jobs.
However, the media had little interest in this and decided to launch attacks on Trump regarding his decision to free the J6 political prisoners. As TGP readers know, Trump on Monday pardoned over 1,500 of these protesters who had suffered unbearable cruelty under the Biden regime. All for the crime of protesting a presidential election at the Capitol.
One so-called ‘reporter’ decided to try to trap Trump with a nasty gotcha question regarding one of the prisoners to humiliate the 47th President.
“You would agree it’s never acceptable to assault a police officer,” the reporter began. “So among those you pardoned, D.J. Rodriguez, he drove a stun gun into the back of a police officer…He later confessed to the FBI on video and pleaded guilty to his crimes.”
“Why does he deserve a pardon?”
Trump saw through the man’s garbage immediately and hit with a quick reality check regarding real violent crimes violent thugs are getting away with in America’s major cities.
“I can say this: murders today are not even charged all over,” Trump replied. “You look at what’s going on in Philadelphia, look at what’s going on in LA, where people murder people, and they don’t get charged.
Trump then pointed out the deplorable in the DC Gulag, where many of the J6 prisoners have been violently assaulted before turning back to crime in the cities.
“These people (the J6ers) have already served years in prison…It’s a disgusting prison, it’s inhumane,” he added. “You go to Portland where they (leftists) whacked police officers and shot police officers, and nothing happened to anybody.”
Trump mentioned the same thing that happened in Seattle before the reporter tried to interrupt. But Trump quickly shut him down and continued.
“Wait a minute,” Trump said. “Take a look at Minneapolis (during the George Floyd riots). If I didn’t bring in the National Guard, that city wouldn’t even exist today…People were killed, and nobody went to jail.

Trump then went back to his decision to pardon the J6 prisoners and took a shot at Biden for pardoning actual violent thugs.
“Joe Biden yesterday gave a pardon to a lot of criminals, Trump stated. “You should be asking: Why did he give a pardon to all these criminals?”
The ‘reporter’ then tried to interrupt Trump again before the president put him in his place one last time.
“Why did he give a pardon to the J6 Unselect Committee when they burned and destroyed all those documents which showed what they did was wrong, not me,” Trump added while holding his hand up to silence the ‘reporter.’ “Wait a minute, why did they (Biden’s handlers) go to all his relatives who made millions of dollars?”
“That’s the question you should be asking?”
