CNNs Jake Tapper responded to Donald Trumps outburst at a reporter on Thursday with a stark reminder for the president ― that he wont be in office for much longer.
Trump snapped at Reuters White House correspondent Jeff Mason for interrupting him during one of his lengthy, conspiracy theory-filled rambles in a press conference that followed the presidents video chat with service members for Thanksgiving.
Dont talk to me that way, Trump told Mason. Youre just a lightweight. Dont talk to me that way. Im the president of the United States. Dont ever talk to the president that way.
Tapper on Twitter named Mason as the excellent journalist who was on the other end of this spectacle.
He then dinged the president with this line:
Jeff will still be working at the White House after January 20, 2021.

A good actor playing a good President in a tv show...
Not a lousy actor being a lousy President in real life.
Advance toward the end of the clip.
