LAS VEGAS. NEVADA: Former President Donald Trump expressed frustration over technical difficulties at his Las Vegas rally on June 9. Throughout his speech, he voiced complaints about his malfunctioning teleprompter. He attempted to make light of the situation after mispronouncing the word "Hispanic," inadvertently saying "Hispanican" instead.

Trump said while addressing the crowd at a Las Vegas rally, "I got no teleprompters! And I haven’t from the beginning.” 

Donald Trump bashes contractors over 'sh**ty' teleprompter 

The former president quickly criticized the crew responsible for organizing the rally. “You know, I pay all this money to teleprompter people, and I’d say 20 per cent of the time they don’t work,” as reported by Media ITE.

Later in the speech, Trump became increasingly agitated over a microphone issue and once again directed a sarcastic comment at the technical crew. “Tell them to make the microphone louder!” Trump said. “It’s terrible! … Are the teleprompters not working? Not even a little bit. Great job!"

Trump threatened to withhold payment from the crew due to technical difficulties. “And then I don’t pay the company that does it, right?” Trump said.



 

He further added, “And then I end up with a story, ‘Trump doesn’t pay.’ I don’t pay contractors that do a sh**ty job. And that’s a sh**ty job! That’s a sh**ty job!" "You can’t read a word. But you know what? It usually ends up that the speech is better, it’s crazy. Then they’ll say, ‘Oh, isn’t it terrible? Trump takes advantage of his [contractors],’" he went on to say.

Trump concluded, "No. I take great — when I have a good contractor, a subcontractor, nobody gets paid faster. But when I have contractors that do this kind of work? You can have them.”

Internet asks if there is anything Donald Trump doesn't complain about

Internet reacted to Trump's bizarre rant over technical problems during a rally. One user said, "How many contractors have filed bankruptcy because Trump doesn’t pay…"



 

Another user added, "Is there anything he doesn't b***h about? ... Nope!"



 

The third commentator claimed, "Contractors who do a good job also don’t get paid."



 

"Trump has spent more time crying about the teleprompter than he has talking about any policies he’s planning on enacting," a person said.
