This is Jennifer Jacobs, the reporter Trump barked quiet, quiet, piggy at for asking about the Epstein files.
Stop normalizing a president abusing reporters, especially women, because hes terrified of a question.

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025/11/18/trump-female-reporter-piggy-epstein-questions/
The US president was travelling to Mar-a-Lago in Florida on Friday when Catherine Lucey, a Bloomberg reporter, asked why he did not want to release the remaining Epstein files.
Ms Lucey said: If theres nothing incriminating in the files, sir, why not act?
Mr Trump singled her out, pointed in her face and told her: Quiet, quiet piggy.
Jacobs pointed out it was the Bloomberg reporter. It was not her.

She wrote that Trump on Friday told a Bloomberg reporter, Quiet, quiet, piggy after the journalist asked why, if theres nothing incriminating in the files, hes acting like there is, in Jacobs words.
It was a reporter from abc the he called fake news for her question to the Saudi prince today

(12,197 posts)Is laughing in his face. He will burst a Clogged vein and be gone. I definitely would pay to see that.
They keep saying access, access. Well, he NEEDS media just as much. With no coverage of his lies, he will be done.
Personally I would love to see left leaning media to stop airing his crap. MS NOW should have had live fact checking today, or just cut him off.
Who needs ACCESS to him, he plasters his BS everywhere.

pandr32
(13,642 posts)However, because of how abusive he is to the press (women included for sure) they should boycott him and not show up at all. No reporters. Na-da.
Let his press pool be not there.
No point anyway. He doesn't answer questions properly. He abuses reporters who do their jobs. F*ck him.

(1,167 posts)Would he have called a male reporter "piggy"? Given the history, no as he mostly refers to women by appearance. But some other name? Absolutely.
ShazzieB
(21,962 posts)He'll insult anybody, but he goes after women for their appearance more than anything else, especially those who don't meet his personal standards for female attractiveness. I think it says a lot about how he sees women. To him, women exist to be decorative and to cater to the needs and desires of men, period. Any woman who asks him a question he doesn't like is falling down on the catering to his needs part, and very few women who haven't had a ton of plastic surgery are able to measure up in the personal attractiveness area. A woman who asks him a question he doesn't like or challenges him in any way AND doesn't look the way he thinks women should look will quickly find herself in the doghouse with him (pun intended). I suspect projection plays a major role as well. Underneath all the bluster, he is extremely insecure, and a fat man calling a woman "piggy" screams insecurity to me.
The only physical trait I can recall him mocking non-disabled men for is being short (as he defines that). Michael Wolff has said that he has a thing about being the tallest guy in the room and that one of the things he hates about Comey is his towering 6'8' height. Trump likes to use his size to intimidate people, and he can't do that with a man who towers over him, lol. With men who are shorter than him, he can lord it over them and call them names like "Little Marco."
The closest thing I can recall to him insulting a man for his weight is saying JB Pritzker needed to "hit the gym" (more obvious projection and hilarious coming from a guy who probably hasn't set foot in a gym since his high school p.e. classes).
If he has ever mocked any aspect of a man's appearance other than height or weight, I must have missed it and would like to be filled in!

(6,413 posts)And there wasn't any member of the media who had the guts to say anything on her behalf? Damn it, they are her colleagues! And by the way, showing a photo of the reporter as if to say "she's not fat, why did he say that?" implies that it would have been okay had she been overweight.
Thank you for pointing that out. Weight is the last bastion of "acceptable" discrimination in this country. Those of us who have struggled know that first hand.
I was once denied a promotion in favor of two men who had no work experience AT ALL, just a BA in a totally unrelated field, and D- reviews in the three months and six months, respectively, they each had in the (very low-level) position we shared. This was despite my having two years in the current role with A++ reviews, 15 years of work experience prior to that job, and a degree with a 4.0 GPA in the exact field for which the spot was open.
My boss was livid and demanded answers from the higher-ups. In response, one of those managers sent her a newspaper article about why fat people don't get promoted and suggested she share it with me "because it might help her."
(Living well is the best revenge though - both dudes flunked out of the spot almost immediately, I ended up getting the promotion after a partner intervened, and have now been doing this work for nearly 30 years...the manager had to resign from her last firm amid a cloud of scandal. Karma is my kink!)

(1,689 posts)The only value a woman has to him is if she's good-looking or f___able. If she's not, he can't even feign the slightest bit of common courtesy or interest in what she has to say.
What a broken, horrible, miserable excuse for a man that lump of nothing is. His parents really damaged him beyond repair. It's too bad they never had to atone for it.
