Donald Trump Accidentally Roasts Himself With Oval Office Question
The president’s question about being “stupid” went awry on social media.
By

President Donald Trump on Wednesday defended his decision to pause his stock market-rattling tariffs but, in the process, teed up a question that critics couldn’t resist answering in withering ways.

“How do you get to be president and you’re stupid?” Trump asked reporters in the Oval Office, as he tried to shift blame for America’s economic challenges more onto his predecessors and not as much on China, which he has targeted with a 125% tariff.

Critics were quick to highlight the irony.

“We’ve been wondering this since 2016 Donald,” one person snarked on social media.

Another added: “The question on all our minds these days.”
