Donald Trump Jr.'s appearance Sunday at a university to talk about his new book on liberals and free speech was marked by an argument between him and the audience over why he would not take questions, the Guardian newspaper reported .
Members of the audience of about 450 people at the University of
California,
Los Angeles, were angry that Trump and his girlfriend, former
Fox News personality Kimberly Guilfoyle, declined to take questions because of time constraints, the Guardian reported.
The Guardian said that Trump told the audience that taking questions from the floor risked creating soundbites that left wing social media posters would abuse and distort.
