“Quiet Piggy”

Two days ago, the president of the United States fielded a question from a reporter.

Evidently, he didn’t care for the question because he said:

“Quiet, Quiet, Piggy.”

The day before his voice was hoarse because he supposedly went crazy shouting at the leader of another country.

Yesterday, he sat next to MBS after doing a fly-over to welcome the Saudi Arabia leader and defended the guy for murdering and dismembering a Washington Post Journalist.

He did this by saying that a lot of people didn’t like the reporter.

All of the above is absolutely disgusting behavior by all accounts.

“Quiet, piggy”????

Good Lord!

When I saw it I wondered what my answer might have been had he said that to me.

How did the reporter not answer that with a resounding:

“Go fuck yourself!”

I would have. I know it, and being kicked out would have been just fine with me.

It calls to mind a work meeting I had once.

The guy called the meeting for 5:30 in the morning and he did it to yell at the contractor I was working for, and me, as their safety consultant.

I arrived at his early morning meeting five minutes early.

He started the meeting in full rant, and in a small room, he was absolutely screaming.

I got up from the table, and headed for the door.

“Where do you think you’re going?” He bellowed.

“You don’t get tot talk to me like that,” I said. “I don’t care who you think you are.”

It stopped him cold.

“I’m sorry,” he said.

Not good enough.

I left, dragging my stunned client with me.

By noon, he had called three times to apologize.

We returned the next day, and for the next six months that guy acted like my best friend.

People will treat you the way that you allow them to treat you.

That reporter should have answered that pig in the same manner he addressed her.

She would have been an absolute star.

In any regard…

…this has to stop.

We are an international embarrassment.
