Trump attacks NYT reporter Maggie Haberman as 'Maggot' and 'unattractive' on Truth Social over 9/11 story

President Donald Trump posted a lengthy Truth Social attack on New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman, calling her 'Maggot Hagerman,' 'unattractive,' a 'stalker,' and a 'SCAMMER.' The tirade came after Haberman co-reported that Trump was skipping the 9/11 commemoration in New York partly because he was not allowed to speak. Trump disputed the report, claiming he preferred not to speak, while the Times stood by its story. The incident drew widespread condemnation from media figures, with critics citing it as part of Trump's documented pattern of targeting female journalists.

“Maggot Hagerman, the Fake Reporter from The Failing New York Times, an unattractive person both inside and out, and who knows less about me than most reporters on the beat (She’s a SCAMMER!), made up a story that on September 11th,” Quote verified against source
