President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump speak to reporters after voting in the 2026 election – October 24, 2026
President Trump on Saturday tore into a Wall Street Journal reporter while voting in Palm Beach, Florida, slamming the outlet as “worse than anybody” after the reporter tried to corner him on government corruption.
Trump voted with First Lady Melania Trump on Saturday before speaking to reporters during his trip to the polls.
The President gave reporters a thumbs-up while walking into the polling place:
Trump slammed the outlet for ignoring corruption in blue states, while focusing all of their time and efforts on his administration.
“Polls also show that government corruption is shot to the top of voter concerns this election. Why do you think that is?” the reporter asked Trump.
“Well, because the Democrats are very corrupt,” Trump responded.
“To me, corruption is one of the biggest things. If you look at Minnesota, if you look at Los Angeles, if you look at New York, the corruption is rampant. And to me, corruption is a very big factor.”
As the reporter tried to ask a follow-up, Trump asked who he writes for and went on to slam the outlet.
“You guys are worse than anybody,” Trump said, adding that the Journal “lost its way.”
“There’s massive corruption that you don’t cover on the Democrat side, and you should, because you ought to look at Minnesota, you ought to look at Maine, you ought to look at Los Angeles, because we are straight and we are solid,” Trump added.
“But you ought to look at the real corruption. It’s Democrat corruption, and that includes Jeffrey Epstein, all Democrats involved.”
Epstein became a major focus of the Trump administration after former Attorney General Pam Bondi’s mishandling of the Epstein files made it appear that the Trump administration was complicit in his crimes, despite Jeffrey Epstein’s ties to and support for Democrats.
WATCH:
President Trump signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act into law last November, forcing the DOJ to release all files related to the Epstein investigation, but critics say the law has not been fully complied with.
