What’s the right response when President Trump calls a woman journalist “Piggy”? Or pronounces another woman journalist “a terrible person” who is simply doing her job in front of world media and leaders? 

Two leading journalists jumped on the phone Tuesday to share their outrage that Trump did that to Catherine Lucey from Bloomberg News — calling her “Piggy” on Air Force 1 in response to a question about the Epstein files — before attacking ABC News White House correspondent Mary Bruce, who asked whether his family’s business dealings with Saudi Arabia constituted a conflict of interest, in front of the Saudi leader Mohammed bin Salman.
