“You haven’t asked me one fucking positive question,” he said. “All of this. What about this? What about that? What about that? What about this? All negative.”

The president had been asked about whether Mitch McConnell should resign from the Senate because of his health issues. Trump responded by indicating that videos of McConnell struggling were a “disappointment to a lot of Republicans,” before noting that “Sleepy Joe gave pardons to everybody.” He then exploded, questioning why they were asking about the White House renovations so much, and griping that they hadn’t asked him about Venezuela. Time pointed out that they talked about Venezuela at length earlier in the interview.

“I don’t understand. I’m sitting here. I’ve done all this stuff,” Trump said. “I took the White House and made it beautiful again.”

Here's a positive question about his deeds that a reporter should ask:

Mr. President, how good did it feel to rape children?

    I have ONE.

    He's been president for a total of 8 6 years, and there's been ONE policy that I've seen him pass that

    1. Is actually a good thing, I think

    2. Isn't something that I would expect someone to do just by virtue of having a brain. (e.g., Operation Warp Speed was good, but also I would expect any moderately intelligent person to do the same.)

    That one thing is establishing a sovereign wealth fund.

    My company sometimes reports producing negative amounts of product if an outside contractor reports finishing losses on the previous month's bumper production, and that is subtracted from the current month's anemic production.

    With polls, maybe we could construct something where people are surveyed on a recurring basis and response rate variation can make the math funny.
