A recurring theme with Donald Trump is that he likes to berate and demean women, and Wednesday was no different at a White House event as a nurse spoke to reporters. Who could have guessed that a man who has admitted to grabbing women by their coochies without consent, and one who has raw-dogged a porn star just after his wife gave birth to their son would not be respectful of women? And also, he’s a serial adulterer, but conservatives tell us he’s a Christian, so it’s all OK.
Health care workers, including nurses like the one the president rebuked here, are working on the front lines against the novel coronavirus pandemic, so it’s probably important to listen to them. But, not if you’re Donald J. Trump, who insists he knows more than the experts do. It’s rather telling when Trump crosses his arms, displaying that he’s a flawed individual with deep insecurities, and that’s just what he did as he rebuked a nurse in front of the nation.
Oh, and by the way, today is National Nurses Day. At any rate, a nurse said, “PPE has been sporadic, but it’s been manageable,” but that was too much for Trump, apparently.
“Sporadic for you, but not sporadic for a lot of other people,” Trump insisted. “That was fine, but I have heard we have a tremendous supply to almost all places.”

The nurse then said, “Oh, I agree with you, Mr. President,” then he cut her off because he’s such an even-tempered, easy to get along with kind of guy.

She agreed with him and he still rebuked her on National Nurses Day. It would be nice to have a professional who Mr. President cuts off like that to say, “I wasn’t finished with what I was saying, Donald,” but he’d probably send his red hats on Twitter after her because that’s the world we live in now.
