Hosting Kennedy Honors, Trump tells audience "Many of you are miserable, horrible people"

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

On Sunday night, Mr. Trump did not steer clear of politics — he hailed his signature policy bill that he signed into law in July — and he did not appear to stay on script.


“If there is one thread that connects all of these amazing artists together, it is the word ‘persistence,’” Mr. Trump said in his opening remarks. “I can say that with a lot of the members of our audience — I know so many of you, and you are persistent. Many of you are miserable, horrible people. But you are persistent, you never give up. Sometimes I wish you’d give up, but you don’t.”
