The 79-year-old was challenged over a statement from the Department of Justice which contradicted his claims about Afghan evacuees.
Earlier this week he responded to an article by The New York Times’ White House correspondent Katie Rogers,in which she reported he has significantly reduced his workload due to age and fatigue,by calling her ‘ugly,both inside and out’ in a social media post.
Wednesday’s attack saw shots fired at a group of National Guard members near a metro station.
Of the two soldiers hit,one,20-year-old Specialist Sarah Beckstrom,has since died of her wounds.
Sgt. Andrew Wolfe,24,remains in hospital where he is ‘fighting for his life’.
Quickly after Sarah’s death,Trump posted a flurry of incoherent messages on his Truth Social account containing a vow to ‘permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries to allow the U.S. system to fully recover’.
He also said his administration would ‘end all federal benefits and subsidies to noncitizens’ and remove ‘anyone who is not a net asset to the United States’.
