Donald Trump uses profanity during interview regarding D.C. construction

During a 75-minute interview with TIME magazine in the Oval Office, President Donald Trump used profanity when responding to questions regarding his extensive construction projects in Washington, D.C. Expressing frustration with the line of questioning, Trump stated, “You haven’t asked me one f***ing positive question.”

The President defended his efforts to reshape the nation's capital, including major changes to the White House complex and plans for a massive ballroom, describing the work as “relaxing.” He argued that the White House serves as a “symbol of America” representing national greatness.

The outburst occurred amid ongoing tensions between the administration and major media outlets. This follows recent legal challenges regarding the administration's attempts to limit access for organizations such as CNN, MSNBC, and Politico. Trump also criticized specific journalists, including CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, during the exchange.
