He stormed out because Caitlin Collins from CNN pressed him to take her question.
THAT is when he left.
Not the first time he has stormed out on CNN.

(38,187 posts)pitching temper tantrums and whining. He is the biggest snowflake of them all. It takes hardly anything to just melt him. Imagine how much easier it would be if more people stood up to him. He would melt, simply melt.

(5,479 posts)He had no idea how to handle two strong women that refused to bow down to his eminence.
You could almost see the steam coming out of his ears when he called an end to it and waddled off, seething. Probably headed right for the Adderall drawer in the Resolute desk.

They don't know the rules obviously - worship the man, don't ask pesky questions! His fragile ego can't take it.

(11,744 posts)Both women upset him because they refused to be bullied today. Jiang refused to let him off the hook for a racially charged response after her question about why he is misrepresenting testing success. Then Collins refused to sit back down when he tried to pass her up because she allowed Jiang to keep up with her questioning.
It isn't a battle between networks. It is a battle between the free Press and a whiny wannabe dictator.

(13,571 posts)Saying that it was Jiang who made him storm out makes the issue about race solely, rather than about his ongoing battering of CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins and other women there.
FURTHER.....
After he denied Kaitlan a question, Trump then called on Yamiche Alcindor, another woman he loves to beat up.
Yamiche tells us on twitter that she deferred the question back to Kaitlan.
And that is when he turned on his heel. Three women reporters in his face.
There's more to the story than the quick and inaccurate reading of RAW.

(251 posts)Tell me why does Trump, the moron, liar, ignoramus, in chief, call on reporters he knows will challenge him?
He thinks he is inspiring his base, base, always arguing with reporters.

(2,198 posts)He can't permit himself to be challenged by a woman.
He can't stand losing, which must be REALLY painful when you're a big loser.
The only way he ever wins is by lying about winning, even while he's losing, which is always.
Yeah, Joe needs a woman running mate and I hope she takes on Trump.
He'll crumble.

(9,942 posts)I am not defending Trump. But the question about why it had to be a competition with other countries was confrontational in my opinion.
a far better question would have been to stick to the facts and ask Trump why he said that we have the lowest number of deaths per thousand people. the reporter could have pointed out that that is not factually accurate. I wish these reporters would just call him out when he lies.
