Trump snaps at reporter asking about his health

President Trump on Thursday snapped at a reporter asked a question about whether his recent rally cancellations were related to his health or being sick of traveling.

Trump was originally scheduled to travel to Salina, Kan., over the weekend to rally voters for Republican candidates, days ahead of the midterm elections. His in-person visit was cancelled and replaced by a series of telerallies in multiple states , including Kansas and Iowa.

After the changes were announced, a reporter from Reuters pressed the president on the decision. A video clip of the interaction, posted by PBS News , shows Trump saying he has been doing “good” while on the campaign trail.

The journalist followed up with another inquiry about his health, as he has been doing “a lot of traveling.”

“Oh, you’re sick to ask that question. You are sick,” Trump replied.

“You’ve been following me for two weeks. I feel perfect. You are disgusting,” he continued. “Put yourself in shape. You look like hell.”

Kansas is home to one of the high-stakes Senate races that could help determine control of the upper chamber next year. Incumbent Sen. Roger Marshall (R) is facing a tough battle against Democratic candidate Adam Hamilton.

Nonpartisan election forecaster Decision Desk HQ rates the contest as leaning narrowly in favor of Marshall, who has a 58 percent probability of winning.

Trump told reporters that while he opted for a telerally in the Sunflower State instead of traveling Saturday, “he is doing very well.” The president reminded the reporter that he will still be traveling Friday for a campaign event in Florida.

“I don’t feel I have to go to Kansas, I’m going to Florida tomorrow,” he said.

This is not the first time the president has snapped at a reporter in recent days. Earlier this month, he cut off a reporter in the Oval Office that started to ask about the East Potomac Park golf course renovations and subsequent legal battle .

“What’s wrong with you? Are you a sick person?” the president added.
