President Donald Trump briefly reacted with surprise when a reporter’s boom mic hit his face while he was answering questions at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland. He quickly joked, “She just made television tonight” about the reporter, before turning to someone off-camera and asking, “Did you see that?”
Earlier, Trump discussed the tariffs on Canada, arguing that the U.S. should no longer subsidize Canada with $200 billion a year, stating that the U.S. doesn’t need Canada’s cars, energy, or lumber. He also suggested that Canada would be better off as a U.S. state, calling it a “great state” despite the artificial border.Trump also took a jab at comedian Rosie O’Donnell after a reporter asked Irish Prime Minister Martin about her move to Ireland. Trump quipped, “You’re better off not knowing” when O’Donnell was mentioned.
