Trump makes shocking comment to Fox News host: ‘It’s the end of my political career’
President Donald Trump did not heed his own advice while offering a shocking compliment to “The Five” co-host Dana Perino.
Trump was a special guest on the Fox News panel show Thursday night when Perino asked him about the situation on the ground for the Iranian people amid the war waged by the United States and Israel.
Trump said he had insight on whether Iranians’ basics needs were being met, but didn’t want to answer just yet.
“But first, do you remember when we had lunch years ago at the base of Trump Tower, when it was a brand-new building … a long time ago? You haven’t changed,” Trump told Perino, who was White House press secretary for George W. Bush before joining Fox News.
“Now, I’m not allowed to say this. It’s the end of my political career,” Trump said.
“But you may be even better looking [today], OK?” the president told Perino.
“But I will not say that because that will end my political career. You’re not allowed to say a woman’s beautiful anymore …," Trump continued.
The president then got to answering Perino’s question.
“When you look at what’s happened, they’re petrified. Because the one side has guns and they have very nasty guns … and what they do is they shoot you. And the people are brave, but they’re not brave when they see people going down left and right — no matter who you are, I don’t care how brave, unless you’re really sort of stupid, you can’t really protest,” he said.
Trump’s critics slammed the president’s behavior.
“He’s such a sick f---,” tweeted former Republican congressman-turned-Trump critic Joe Walsh.
“What a disgusting pig,” posted the anti-Trump X account Spiro’s Ghost.
