Vice President JD Vance held a press briefing on Tuesday and was not in the mood for lengthy monologues from the White House press corps.

During the session, reporter Andrew Feinberg launched into an extended discussion about President Trump’s recently released financial disclosures, claiming they showed stock trades in companies the President had publicly promoted at official events, the White House, and on Truth Social.

Feinberg attempted to link these transactions to polling indicating Americans describe the President as corrupt and argued that public officials should not trade individual stocks.

Before Feinberg finished his remarks, Vance interrupted, calling it “a hell of a question.” When Feinberg continued, Vance pressed for clarity: “Okay, what’s the question?”

Once the actual question arrived, Vance labeled the setup a “doozy,” noting that reporters can either request information or deliver speeches accusing the Vice President, the President, and the entire cabinet of being terrible people before adding a question mark.

Vance clarified that President Trump does not trade stocks on his own account but has independent wealth advisors managing his finances. He also stated that both he and President Trump support banning members of Congress from trading stocks to prevent misuse of proprietary information gained in public service.

The President’s financial disclosures, filed per federal requirements, showed investments in publicly traded companies where the President had discussed matters. Vance emphasized that these reports are routine and not indicative of wrongdoing.
