Trump snaps at ABC reporter

The president reacted strongly to these remarks.

In a recent interview with ABC News on the first 100 days of his presidency, Donald Trump quickly turned confrontational.

Tempers flared when Trump went to great lengths to contradict ABC News journalist Terry Moran, who claimed that the letters "M", "S", "1" and "3" had been Photoshopped onto the hand of Kilmar Ábrego García, a man mistakenly deported to a prison in El Salvador.

Moran pointed out that the letters and numbers had been "photoshopped" onto the image recently published by Trump on his Truth Social network.social network Truth Social, which shows the president, from the Oval Office, holding a sheet of paper with a photo of Kilmar Ábrego García's hand printed on it.

The fingers of the hand in the photo feature several tattoos: a marijuana leaf, a smiley face, a cross and a skull. However, the photo in question has clearly been digitally altered: letters and numbers have been added above each image: an "M", an "S", a "1" and a "3", forming the acronym "MS-13".

After pointing out that the letters "M", "S", "1" and "3" had obviously been added numerically to the image, the ABC News reporter was visibly annoyed that the president didn't grasp this numerical manipulation.to the image, the ABC News reporter was visibly annoyed that the president didn't grasp this digital manipulation. Moran, however, did not dispute that the tattoo "could be interpreted that way", pointing out that he did not consider himself an expert on the subject.

These remarks sparked a sharp reaction from the president, who immediately retorted: "No, Terry, no, no, he has M-S… as clear as you can be, not interpreted". During this tense exchange, the president went on to hurl a series of insults at the journalist, claiming that this interview represented "the big break of a lifetime" for him.

He then accused the media of fueling public distrust, concluding, "This is why the people no longer believes the news." "Why don't you just say, yes he does (has the MS13 tattoed) and go on to something else", Trump then launched, in a fit of anger. ABC News' Terry Moran, as well as his sighs and face expressions throughout the interview, have since gone viral.
