Angry Donald Trump walked out of meeting with Fox News host Judge Jeanine
Angry Donald Trump walked out of meeting with Fox News host Judge Jeanine - The Washington Polity

The Nov. 1 meeting with Pirro came at her request, according to the Times, and hinged on a deal approved during Hillary Clinton’s tenure as secretary of state that put Russia in control of a chunk of the U.S. uranium supply.

But during that meeting, Pirro, who hosts Fox News’ “Justice with Judge Jeanine,” went on to rile the president up over special counsel Robert Mueller and former FBI Director James Comey, the Times reported.

Quote:
|
Mueller is conducting the criminal investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election and possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Moscow. Trump has called the probe a “witch hunt.”

Quote:

Comey, who was abruptly fired by Trump in May, has also been the target of Trump’s ire at times. Comey claimed earlier this year that Trump once asked him for a loyalty pledge and later pressed him to end the FBI’s investigation of former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

At one point in the meeting between Trump and Pirro, according to the Times, White House chief of staff John Kelly interrupted, saying that Pirro was not “helping things” by riling up the president.

The report states that Trump became upset when Pirro decried hardball legal tactics, reminding her that hard-charging McCarthy-era attorney Roy Cohn was once his mentor who might serve him well now as one of his defenders.

The White House source reports that at one point in the meeting, Kelly grew weary with Pirro’s rant, with the White House Chief of Staff interrupting her to tell her she was “not helping things.”

If these two reality show stars are now at loggerheads, what does that mean for the kardashians and dancing with the stars?
