"Come on, come on," said Trump said, cutting her off again. "You know, why don't you people act why don't you act in a little more positive it's always trying to getcha, getcha."
Alcindor tried to ask the question again, but the president continued, "And you know what, that's why nobody trusts the media anymore." He added: "Look, let me tell you something. Be nice. Don't be threatening."
As Alcindor continue to press the president, he turned toward another reporter and a White House aide came over to Alcindor and snatched the microphone from her hand.

The put-down occurred after Trump crowed in a Rose Garden statement about a better-than-expected 13.3% unemployment figure for the nation in May. The president shockingly claimed that it was a great day for George Floyd the Black man a white police officer killed last month in Minneapolis because he would be pleased looking down at the jobs stats.

When Alcindor, who works for PBS, asked the president to explain how he plans to address systemic racism in the country, he held a finger to his lips, then seconds later said: A strong economy.
When she asked how worsening jobless figures for Asians and Blacks were a victory, as Trump had claimed, he shook his head angrily and told her: You are something else.
Good grief, it's such a relief that he's gone.
