Insults to press and chairman of joint chiefs of staff recall barbs while Trump was in power
In remarks to diners at his Mar-a-Lago resort in
Florida on Saturday night,
Donald Trump called the
American media “crooked bastards” and Gen Mark Milley, the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, a “fucking idiot”.
The meandering, foul-mouthed speech to Turning Point
USA, a group for young conservatives, was streamed by Jack Posobiec, a rightwing blogger and provocateur.
