President Donald Trump exploded at ABC News White House correspondent Rachel Scott on Thursday afternoon (May 7) after she asked him why he was focused on renovations amid the Iran war.

The tirade came as Trump fielded questions from reporters beside the Reflecting Pool in front of the Lincoln Memorial in the nation’s capital. Updates to the Lincoln Memorial and Washington Monument are among the president’s ongoing renovation projects, including the construction of a new White House ballroom.
