‘Sh*tty Job!’ Trump Blows a Gasket Over Tech Problems at Rally, Threatens Not to Pay the Crew in Bizarre Rant

 

Former President Donald Trump fumed about technical issues plaguing his rally in Las Vegas Sunday.

At several points during his speech, Trump complained that his teleprompter was not working. He made light of the issue after trying to say the word “Hispanic” and flubbing it — instead saying “Hispanican.”

“I got no teleprompters!” Trump said. “And I haven’t from the beginning.”

The former promptly called out the crew which set up the rally. these people.

“You know, I pay all this money to teleprompter people, and I’d say 20 percent of the time they don’t work.”

Later in the speech, Trump grew even angrier about an issue with his microphone — and once again lashed out at the crew with a sarcastic remark.

“Tell them to make the microphone louder!” Trump screamed. “It’s terrible! … Are the teleprompters not working? Not even a little bit. Great job!

Trump then threatened not to pay the crew over the technical issues.

“And then I don’t pay the company that does it, right?” Trump said. “And then I end up with a story, ‘Trump doesn’t pay.’ I don’t pay contractors that do a shitty job. And that’s a shitty job! That’s a shitty job! You can’t read a word. But you know what? It usually ends up that the speech is better, it’s crazy. Then they’ll say, ‘Oh, isn’t it terrible? Trump takes advantage of his [contractors].’ No. I take great — when I have a good contractor, a subcontractor, nobody gets paid faster. But when I have contractors that do this kind of work? You can have them.”

Watch above.
