Trump repeatedly targets female reporters with personal insults

Former President Donald Trump has a pattern of disparaging female reporters, according to an Axios analysis. This behavior, which has occurred at least thirteen times since November 2025, includes personal insults and accusations of being a "SCAMMER." While Trump also criticizes male reporters, his attacks on women are often more personal and have drawn criticism from press freedom advocates who argue it undermines media trust and exposes journalists to harassment. A White House spokesperson stated these comments are not gender-related but stem from low public trust in the media. AI
