“He’s a Snake” – President Trump Hits Back at Washington State Gov. Inslee During CDC Presser (VIDEO)
President Donald Trump hit back at Washington Governor Jay Inslee on Friday, calling the far left state leader a “snake” while talking to reporters during his visit to the Centers for Disease Control on Friday.
Earlier in the week Inslee took a swipe at President Trump and his coronavirus response.
I just received a call from @VP Mike Pence, thanking Washington state for our efforts to combat the coronavirus.— Jay Inslee (@JayInslee) February 28, 2020
I told him our work would be more successful if the Trump administration stuck to the science and told the truth.
This was after President Trump shut down flights from the Wuhan area to the US and saved countless lives — something NO OTHER political leader would have the guts to do.
On Friday while visiting the CDC in Atlanta, Georgia President Trump was asked about Governor Inslee.
Trump called him a snake.
Trump called him a snake.
