Donald Trump isn’t exactly known for taking tough questions well, but one Brit reporter managed to cut through the noise in spectacular fashion.
🎯 ‘With Respect, Are You Overstating This?’
James Matthews, US correspondent for Sky News, didn’t hold back when he confronted Trump about his just-announced UK trade deal. In a room full of cautious questions, Matthews went straight for the jugular:
“With respect, are you overstating the reach and significance of this deal because you are a president who needs a result at this difficult time?”
Trump, visibly caught off guard, responded with a flustered, “This is a maxed-out deal…”
🔥 A Question That Hit a Nerve
It’s a rare moment when a question genuinely throws Trump, and Matthews deserves a round of applause for it. The president’s deflection felt thin, given the trade deal was widely seen as a political distraction from a mountain of bad news.

American reporters, take note – this is how you do it. Less soft pitches, more direct, no-nonsense questions that get to the heart of the matter.
