Trump fan hangs up after being asked a tough question by James O'Brien | LBC

This is the agonising moment a Donald Trump supporter hung up on James O'Brien after he couldn't answer one question about the former President.

With just hours to go of the Donald Trump presidency, James O'Brien opened the phone lines to speak to listeners who wanted to defend the President.

The call started with Steven from Islington who said he was a "fan of Trump" who asserted there was a lot in the media which were lies about the President.

Steven and James went back and forth for a while over comments made by Trump, including the outgoing president's stance on Barak Obama not being born in America.

"There have been previous presidents that have actually white that have also been accused of not being born in America, is that racist?" Steven asked.

James said it was not, but asked the caller to clarify who he was talking about.

The caller did not have his ducks in a row, he told James he had "forgotten the names..."

James then spent some time pointing out to the caller things which had been said and welcoming him to rebuff them.

Which Steven did not seem to be able to do.

When James asked the caller what he likes about Trump the call went even further downhill."

"I think he spoke a lot of the truth on stuff," Steven said.

James shot back asking "yeah, what stuff?"

*Click* rather than answering the question the caller simply hung up.

"Steven's hung up..." James said.

As an American, there is a bit of relief that this stupidity isn’t just in America…but it is also very sad and depressing.

[lazersly]

I think he hung up because his answer was going to be "racism". 😂

[Schmickdonalds]

Not even a tough question! “What is it you like about him?” That’s where you fold?

[mike]

This guy is great. He gives everyone who calls a chance, a chance to crumble and make fools of themselves.

[KAIbanezAX]

“Which president?”
“Ah you wouldn’t know him, he goes to another school”

[rhaelfixer]

Just a side note:
Trump and his father was sued in court for racially discriminate blacks in the real estate back in the days

[ProneOyster]

As funny as this is, the bad part is that he's most likely not going to learn a single thing from this, and will instead retreat to his facebook groups and whatnot where he will further be entrenched in his alternative facts

I sure wish American media had a journalist like Mr O’Brien

[BldeRonin]

As an American I loved every second of this exchange. Wish there was more of this in America.

“I think that he come out and spoke alot truth and stuff”
“What stuff?”

Let a foolish person talk long enough, and they’ll expose who they A fool. 🤦🏾‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️.

[Bella-vtol]

Just ran across your channel for the first time...THANK YOU! Thank you for standing up for decency and for calling these people out for who they really are...major props 👊🏻

I have to say, British insults and comebacks are 10x better than American ones. You know how to just rip a man apart without one swear word or screaming. Brilliant

"I like him because he legitimises my dodgy views and ethics."
-Every Trump supporter, ever.

[albdamned]

this host knows how to ask questions, it is a shame more reporters can't figure it out.

[truthgiver]

I couldn't understand how Americans could elect Donald Trump but then we in the UK elected Boris Johnson. Insane isn't it.

[hardworkingcriminal]

As an American I'm always fascinated to hear what the rest of the world thinks of us. This was a gr8 3min listen.

[MrAntbluntfreaks]

Love when people act as if they're smart and informed then can't handle a single question.

[andreasdesigns]

Those kind of people always use vague “points” without proof to backup their statements.

[moliv]

Finally, thank you for speaking the truth and holding the guest accountable for all the lies.
