Trump Unleashes Aggressive Two-Word Insult at Journalist Exposing His War Strategy
In a controversial move, President Donald Trump has labeled Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, a “total sleazebag.” This remark came as Trump defended National Security Advisor Michael Waltz, who faced backlash over unintentionally adding Goldberg to a White House group chat discussing military plans against Iranian-backed Houthis. The incident was revealed by Goldberg himself, raising questions about security protocols.
During a Cabinet Room event, Trump characterized The Atlantic as a “failed magazine,” asserting its lack of relevance in media. “Nobody gives a damn about it,” he remarked, further clouding the narrative surrounding the accidental inclusion of Goldberg in sensitive discussions. Both Trump and Waltz shifted blame away from Waltz by suggesting an unnamed aide might be responsible for the mishap.
Waltz, along with other team members, defended their actions, stating, “There’s a lot of journalists in this city who have made big names for themselves making up lies about this president.” Trump, echoing this sentiment, emphasized that the focus should remain on national security rather than media controversies.
As the White House navigates this incident, it highlights the complexities of digital communication and the challenges of safeguarding sensitive information in an age of instant connectivity. This remains one of the most pressing scandals during Trump’s administration, reflecting broader concerns about transparency and accountability.
