U.S President Donald Trump lashed out at a reporter during remarks about a new ballroom project, accusing the media of spreading “fake news” over claims that costs had doubled. Trump insisted the project remained under budget and said the increase came because he personally decided to double the ballroom’s size. When questioned about the rising price tag, Trump fired back aggressively, saying, “I doubled the size of it, you dumb person,” before adding, “You are not a smart person.” The heated exchange quickly went viral online, reigniting debate over Trump’s confrontational relationship with the press and media coverage of his public appearances

00:00So what happened is, we have a ballroom that's under budget.
00:03It's going up right here.
00:05I've doubled the size of it because we obviously need that.
00:09And we're right now on budget, under budget, and ahead of schedule.
00:12The price is double.
00:13What about you double?
00:14I doubled the size of it, you dumb person.
00:17It's double the size.
00:19You are not a smart person.
00:21Mr. President, I don't prove that we're going to be serious.
00:24Mr. President, Mr. President, Mr. President, Mr. President, Mr. President, Mr. President.
00:25Right over here.
00:26Wait a minute.
00:27Right over here.
00:28And based on a lot of things that have happened over the last year, we doubled the size of
00:35the ballroom.
00:36So we're going to have a ballroom that's appropriate for the White House.
00:39We doubled the size.
00:40The ballroom now is ahead of schedule, and it's a little bit under budget, depending on
00:45the finishes that we use.
00:47The ballroom is working incredibly.
00:48If you go back to just before the war, for the last three months, inflation was at 1.7%.
00:55Now, we had a choice.
00:57Let these lunatics have a nuclear weapon.
01:00If you want to do that, then you're a stupid person.
01:03And you happen to be.
01:04I mean, I know you very well.
01:07Anybody that wants them to have a nuclear weapon is a stupid person.
01:12So we said, we're going to take the greatest stock market in history, and we're going to go
01:17down a little bit.
01:18And actually, that turned out to be incorrect because our stock market is now at the highest
01:24point in history, which, frankly, surprised a lot of people.
01:28It's a very simple message.
01:31It's a very simple message.
01:31Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.
01:33And they won't have a nuclear weapon.
01:34And that's 100%.
01:35The Navy is gone.
01:37Their Air Force is gone.
01:39Their anti-aircraft is gone.
01:41Their radar is gone.
01:43Their leaders are gone.
01:44They're all gone.
01:46Iran will not have a nuclear weapon.
01:48What is going to be your red line to end the ceasefire for you?
01:52What will it take?
01:53To pull the plug?
01:54Well, we're going to see.
01:55And we'll be thinking about it on the flight, and we'll be thinking about it for the next
02:00little while.
02:01But we've beaten their military very soundly.
02:05That's over with.
02:06The blockade is very effective.
02:08It's been 100% effective.
02:11And one way or the other, it's going to work out very well.
02:14It's going to work out very well.
02:15I think you're going to have so much oil, you're going to have a gusher of oil like
02:19you've never had before.
02:21So when oil goes up a little bit, I thought it would go up much more.
02:24If you go back three, four months ago, when we were contemplating, we assumed oil would
02:31go much higher.
02:32Yesterday, it was at $99.
02:34And if you think about it, I would have taken that all day long because it's very simple.
02:39Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.
02:41They will not have a nuclear weapon.
02:43They know that.
02:44They've agreed to that.
02:46They've agreed to that.
02:46And then that's not what they said to me when it came to pay.
02:49We don't play games.
02:50They're not going to have a nuclear weapon.
