Donald Trump lost his temper with a reporter on Tuesday after she pressed him on why Iran is continuing to fight. In barely-concealed anger, he ripped her organization as “fake” and insisted Iran “desperately” wants to make a deal.

"Bleak."
That's the future I wish for Trump. Also painful and short.

Can I substitute incapacitated and long for short? Much like the GOP, I wish to watch him suffer.
