Jonathan Swan during the interview.
A respected Aussie reporter's excruciating interview with US President Donald Trump has gone viral and is producing hundreds of memes.
Trump sat down with Axios's national political correspondent Jonathan Swan, which was aired by HBO this week. Swan grilled Trump about the US response to the coronavirus
pandemic, with the US President insisting the US was "under control".
Swan, who continued to ask Trump what he meant, reminded the President throughout the interview "a thousand Americans are dying a day". Swan appeared confused by the President's responses, and photos of his perplexed reactions have gone viral.
The Axios interview has since gone viral with Swan praised for his prosecutorial questioning of Trump, as well as what many have said played out to be a sitcom-type scenario.
