Everything we know about female reporter referred to as ‘piggy’ by Trump in shocking video

The female journalist Donald Trump called ‘piggy’ has been identified as Bloomberg reporter Catherine Lucey.

The US president has a long history of making similar remarks about women, including political rivals, The Apprentice contestants and even his own daughter.

Yet the 79-year-old went viral once more for his latest round of demeaning comments, made while boarding Air Force One on Friday (November 14).

Reporters gathered to question Trump, who was heading to his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

Of course, earlier that week he’d been named in emails related to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

Released by the Democrats on the House Oversight Committee, Trump was mentioned in the correspondence between the late Epstein, his then girlfriend and convicted trafficker, Ghislaine Maxwell and author Michael Wolff.

In one of the three released e-mails, Epstein appears to refer to Trump as ‘that dog that does not bark’, before alleging a victim ‘spent hours at my house with him’.

Trump has denied any wrongdoing, while the White House slammed the Democrats for ‘selectively’ leaking emails to ‘create a fake narrative to smear President Trump’.

Since, the House of Representatives has voted overwhelmingly to release the Epstein files.

With this in mind, Bloomberg’s Lucey asked Trump is there was anything ‘incriminating’ in the Epstein emails, which Trump didn’t take well to.

Pointing in her face, he responded: “Quiet! Quiet, piggy!”

Lucey was off-camera at the time, and hasn’t since publicly addressed the comment.

Meanwhile, a Bloomberg News spokesperson told the Guardian: “Our White House journalists perform a vital public service, asking questions without fear or favor.

“We remain focused on reporting issues of public interest fairly and accurately.”

What else did Trump say to Catherine Lucey?

Lucey had another brush with Trump over the weekend, this time after she asked about an interview political commentator Tucker Carlson did with right-wing nationalist Nick Fuentes.

“You are the worst! You’re with Bloomberg, right? You are the worst!” Trump snapped, adding: “I don’t know why they even have you.”

Sounds like Lucey was simply doing her job, if you ask me…
