President Trump and First Lady Melania arrived at the Trump Kennedy Center on Thursday evening for the “Melania” premiere.
“Melania” documents the 20 days leading up to President Trump’s second inauguration.
Trump sparred with reporters as he walked the red carpet.
A New York Times reporter asked President Trump about Amazon’s $40 million bid for the documentary.
“Amazon paid $75 million to make and market this film. It is an exorbitant fee….” a New York Times reporter said to Trump.
Trump interjected, “And who are you?”
“New York Times,” the reporter replied.
“Ugh! The New York Times… Fake News New York Times,” Trump said.
Another reporter asked President Trump about Amazon’s bid for Melania’s documentary.
“What do you say to those who are critical of the fact that Amazon gave $40 million to acquire the rights of this movie?” the reporter asked President Trump.
President Trump turned the tables on the reporter.
“Well, I think they’d have to go and ask President Obama who got paid a lot of money and hasn’t done anything! So, if you take a look at others they’ve been paid a lot of money. Melania really produced! She’s done a great thing,” Trump said.
