‘Lunatics Like You…’ Trump CLASHES With Reporter Who Challenged His Second-Term Tariff Moves
President Donald Trump erupted at a reporter who challenged his second-term tariff moves, firing back, “I was fighting lunatics like you,” at a White House event.
The clash came after Trump signed sweeping executive actions invoking a rarely used 1977 law to impose wide-ranging reciprocal tariffs, including 10%–41% across over 70 nations.
His rebuttal referenced the COVID-19 pandemic, explaining that in his first term, tariffs were sidelined while the U.S. tackled the global health crisis.
Trump insisted that his administration had already collected "hundreds of billions" in tariffs from China, and blamed the press for underreporting the results.
The executive actions are framed as protective moves for U.S. national security and economic strength.The moment highlights his combative stance on trade and media relations.

Russia has escalated the war in Ukraine with one of its biggest aerial assaults of the year, launching over 600 drones and missiles on western Ukraine, striking residential areas and even a U.S.-owned electronics plant near the Hungarian border. At least one person was killed and 15 injured, including six night-shift workers at the American-run Flex factory. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Moscow of deliberately targeting American businesses, declaring that Putin does not seek peace but aims to install a Russian puppet in Ukraine. The attack came just days after U.S. President Donald Trump met Putin in Alaska and hosted Zelensky and European leaders at the White House. While Russia’s foreign minister claimed peace talks could happen, Zelensky said Moscow’s actions prove otherwise. The strike has raised tensions in Washington and Europe, with leaders weighing stronger sanctions and new military guarantees for Kyiv.

The United States has signaled a dramatic shift in its Ukraine policy, with Politico reporting that Washington plans to play only a minimal role in Kyiv’s long-term security guarantees. U.S. Defense Policy Undersecretary Elbridge Colby told European counterparts during Aug. 19 talks that the burden of ensuring Ukraine’s safety will fall on Europe, not America. The news follows President Donald Trump’s high-profile meetings with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House. Despite Trump boasting of progress in peace negotiations, he made clear that U.S. troops will not be deployed in Ukraine to uphold any deal. European leaders, alarmed by the prospect of carrying the bulk of responsibility, fear being left “back to spring’s coalition of the willing.” As NATO prepares for further discussions, Trump has floated a trilateral summit with Putin and Zelensky to seal a potential settlement.

Elon Musk’s much-hyped new political party has reportedly stalled just two months after its launch. Sources say Musk is retreating amid GOP pushback, fearing damage to ties with Republican leadership, especially VP JD Vance. The Tesla billionaire has suspended meetings, distanced himself from allies like Andrew Yang, and shifted focus back to Republican politics. Despite once pledging millions for his own party, Musk may now redirect support toward Vance’s 2028 White House run. Critics argue Musk lacks the credibility and infrastructure to build a lasting third-party force.
