Watching Chris Hayes...

The Jewish reporter asked about what was he going to do about the rise of anti- Semitism in the country.

I just noticed this about Trump's answer. Trump said he was repulsed by the question. The reporter never asked him was he anti-semitic. However, he told Trump that he and the people in his community do not believe he and his administration are anti- Semitic. Why was he so repulsed by the question?

any question that would challenge him. He took it as a challenge to his "governing".

I watched the presser, but didn't hear the entire question at the time. I think the sound was bad. Good for Chris H. for showing the entire exchange. That reporter was clearly frustrated, but didn't get a follow-up for clarification. He was told to sit down (and shut up, implied.)

Trump clearly did not listen to the man's question. He jumped to conclusions that he was under attack.
