White House reporter overheard calling Trump's minute-long press conference 'weird as s---'

• White House reporters were left puzzled Tuesday after President Donald Trump gave a minute-long press briefing and left without taking any questions.

• Trump hailed the Dow Jones Industrial Average's record-breaking gains, thanked his staff, praised the coronavirus vaccine effort, and left without taking questions.

• As he finished, reporters tried to ask him about the transition to President-elect Joe Biden, but the president walked right out.

• Afterward, numerous reporters, many of whom surely used to Trump's often-erratic speeches, were filmed reacting to the briefing.

• "Well, that was weird as shit," one reporter was heard saying, while another was heard saying: "That was one of the stranger briefings."

• Jordan Fabian, Bloomberg's White House correspondent, later tweeted: "One of the stranger presidential briefing room appearances," adding that Vice President Mike Pence was also present but did not say anything.
