MELTDOWN: Fox News Reporter Snaps At Viewers For Calling Out His Anti-Trump Questions John Roberts on Thursday badgered White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany with absurd questions on left-wing media's fake outrage about white supremacists. Since the presidential debate Tuesday, the media have been falsely claiming that President Trump has not condemned white supremacists enough. Roberts asked McEnany to condemn white supremacy on Trump’s behalf. She responded by reading off past quotes of the president categorically condemning white supremacists, KKK and other extremist groups. But that was not enough for the liberal Fox News reporter who kept asking the press secretary to apparently say exactly what he wants to hear. Roberts later whined about it again on air. “The take-away remains that the press secretary would not in a definitive and unambiguous and non-deflecting way say that the president condemns white supremacism in all its forms and any group that espouses it,” he claimed on Fox News afternoon talk show Outnumbered. “And this is not something that I just made up. Mitch McConnell, Senator Lindsey Graham, Senator Tim Scott are all saying that after what happened at the debate on Tuesday, they would like to see the president come out with a definitive statement,” he continued. “But when I asked if Kayleigh McEnany, as a spokesperson for the president, speaking on behalf of the president would do that, it didn’t quite amount to that. “In the past there have been statements by the president, which Kayleigh McEnany was happy to furnish, but in the wake of what happened on Tuesday night and in the wake of these calls from Capitol Hill for the president to do something, I was simply looking, Melissa, for a declarative statement today just to clear the air, and that was not forthcoming from the White House.” Roberts then went on to slam his critics on social media. “For all of you on Twitter who are hammering me for asking that question, I don’t care, because it’s a question that needs to be asked and clearly the president’s Republican colleagues a mile away from here are looking for an answer for it too. “So stop deflecting. Stop blaming the media,” he snapped. “I’m tired of it.” WATCH Roberts' exchange with McEnany and later with Fox News Melissa Francis.
