Donald Trump criticised over 'creepy' comments to female reporter
Donald Trump has been accused of singling out an Irish female reporter in a “bizarre moment” in which he comment on her smile while he on was on a call to the Irish prime minister.
The President was speaking to Leo Varadkar, the recently approved Taoiseach of Ireland, with several member of the Irish press watching the proceedings in the Oval Office.
“Come here, come here. Where are you from? We have all of this beautiful Irish press,” Mr Trump said, pointing at Caitriona Perry, Washington correspondent for Ireland’s RTÉ News.
Continuing to address Mr Varadkar, Mr Trump added: “She has a nice smile on her face, so I bet she treats you well.”
Ms Perry, who could not be immediately contacted for comment, posted a video clip of the incident on Twitter, calling it a bizarre moment.
