Why is no other reporter backing her up and asking same questions?

They’re afraid of what it might do to their career. It’s a big reason why most reporters and journalists should not be taken seriously and deserve no praise for the ‘work’ they (don’t) do.
Lots of people don’t like donald trump.
That means we should be able to kidnap and dismember him.

Donald Trump welcomed Mohammed bin Salman to the White House on Tuesday for the Saudi Crown Prince’s first visit to Washington since the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. The president berated a reporter who asked about the killing.
Trump lost his temper and began yelling at ABC News reporter Mary Bruce after she raised the issue of Saudi Arabia’s role in the September 11 terror attacks and also asked the Crown Prince about the 2018 murder of the Washington Post columnist by Saudi agents acting on his orders.
As Bruce pressed him on whether his family should be doing business in the oil-rich kingdom during his presidency and asked the Saudi leader on why Americans should trust him given his role in Khashoggi’s murder, Trump angrily interrupted her and asked her to identify her employer. After she said she worked for ABC News, he shouted at her: “Fake News. ABC, fake news, one of the worst, one of the worst in the business.”
He angrily denied having anything to do with his eponymous real estate and hotel company’s multiple partnerships with Saudi developers and claimed his sons, who currently run the company, have “done very little with Saudi Arabia”.
Trump also attempted to dismiss the question about the killing of Khashoggi — a US permanent resident at the time of his murder — by calling the slain journalist “extremely controversial.”

Things happen, but he knew nothing about it. And we can leave it at that,” he said before chiding Bruce for “embarrassing” the Saudi leader.

He then claimed that al Qaeda leader and 9/11 mastermind Osama bin Laden, a wealthy Saudi construction heir, had “used Saudi people” to commit the terror attacks with the aim of destroying U.S.-Saudi relations.
Prince Mohammed then addressed the matter of the Washington Post journalist Khashoggi whose 2018 abduction and murder the CIA determined he had approved, by claiming it had also been “really painful” to hear of “anyone … losing his life … for no real purpose or not in a legal way.”
“And it’s been painful for us in Saudi Arabia. We did all the right steps of investigation, etc, in Saudi Arabia, and we’ve improved our system to be sure that nothing happened like that, and it’s painful and it’s a huge mistake, and we are doing our best that this doesn’t happen again,” he said.
I saw no denial there, so there ya go

Nah, he already got that when he sucked off Bubba.

“Lot of people” think Trump is a fucking moron, must be true.
I can’t wait to never hear this orange piece of shits name again.
Yeah, a lot of people don’t like Trump. So according to his logic it would be fine to cut him into pieces while alive.
I see no flaw here.
I’d like to share your optimism but I think we’re going to be hearing about him for the rest of our lives. Reagan has been cold in the ground for 2 decades and I still hear about his bitch ass all the time
Hitler’s been in the ground for 8 decades and there’s whole policial movements still trying to make him seem like he had some ideas that weren’t total dog shit.
Seriously this is one of the few things that really keeping me from collapsing into a depressed heap with no hope, if I live long enough I’ll be able to live in a world free once more from the pollution that is his existence
I’m sure a lot of people in certain circles didn’t like that gentleman. He tended to report on corruption.
Now I’m wondering if Trump has anything to do with Khashoggi being killed.
She would make a better president than him just based off her questions alone.
I wish there was a slam.
Or even a welcome to the jam.
Yeah, not even a blast here…
Nobody even got RIPPED, so I have no idea who won here.
It’s a slam or it’s not
