Alright, grab your coffee because you’re going to want to hear this one! So, President Trump just took a swing at Senator Adam Schiff during a press conference, and boy was it a moment. It happened in North Carolina, where Trump wasn’t shy about calling out the California Democrat for bailing on a trip to check out wildfire damage back home.
Picture this: Trump’s up there talking to reporters when he brings up Schiff’s absence. He mentioned that he saw Schiff on TV the night before and said it looked like he “got hit with a baseball bat” or “beat around.” Ouch, right? He even went further, wondering aloud, “What happened to him? Something happened to him… it looked like he got hit.” You can almost see the smirk on his face as he delivered that line (source: Slay News).
Now, here’s where it gets interesting. Despite throwing shade at Schiff for not joining him, Trump claimed he would have welcomed him aboard Air Force One if he had decided to tag along. Classic political maneuvering! When asked if he invited Schiff personally, Trump replied with a shrug that basically screamed indifference: “I don’t know… Cause if he’s going to be there, it would be cheaper…” Classic Trump!
Schiff’s camp did try to explain his absence though. They said he couldn’t make the trip because of Senate confirmation votes happening in D.C. His spokesperson even shared some sweet words about appreciating Trump’s visit and committing to work together for California’s recovery efforts post-wildfire. But let’s be real; all anyone is buzzing about is how hard Trump went after him on live TV (source: Fox Los Angeles).
So there you have it—political theater at its finest! Whether you love or hate these guys, moments like this definitely keep things spicy in Washington. Cheers to more wild rides ahead!
