Moment President Donald Trump erupts at NBC reporter: 'You're a disgrace!'

President Donald Trump slammed an NBC reporter in the Oval Office as he hosted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa. The two leaders began their conversation by celebrating South Africa's golfers before moving on to a press conference with reporters. He then started showing the South African President images displayed on screen that appeared to show white South Africans mourning their loved ones. This was carefully prepared ahead of time, according to the BBC. After the footage ended, reporters began asking questions over each other, with Ramaphosa visibly shocked and wanting to respond. Trump then replied to one NBC reporter and told him to "get out."

He slammed, "What are you talking about? You've got to get out of here. What does this have to do with the Qatari jet? We are talking about a lot of other things - this is NBC trying to get off the subject of what you just saw. You're a terrible reporter. You don't have what it takes."

Trump later added, "Go back to your studio at NBC. You ought to be investigated - you're a disgrace. No more questions from you. His name is Peterson or something. He's a terrible reporter."

Prior to the brutal comment from Trump, the atmosphere in the room had reportedly already shifted when Trump sprung an apparent 'ambush' on Ramaphosa.

While the video plays, Trump adds commentary and says, "It's a terrible sight. I've never seen anything like it." Ramaphosa then asks Trump, "Have they told you where that is, Mr. President?" to which he said no.

Ramaphosa says he'd like to know where the footage is, as he's never seen it before, to which Trump said, "It's in South Africa."

Following the altercation with the NBC reporter, Trump then held up a stack of papers with images of white South Africans’ faces that the President claims were murdered.

The room then plunges into chaos, with reporters shouting over each other. Ramaphosa responds to the accusations and then steers the conversation to trade. According to the BBC, the South African President said, "South Africa has a democracy that allows people to express themselves."

"There is criminality in our country," he added, "and the people who get killed in South Africa are not only white people, but also include black people."
