Trump abruptly ends NBC interview, calls network 'fakes'

Washington D.C. – U.S. President Donald Trump terminated an interview with NBC News prematurely, expressing anger and accusing the interviewer and the network of dishonesty. The dramatic exit occurred during a discussion about the integrity of elections.

“

The same thing is happening again in California right now.

During his visit to Wisconsin, Trump reiterated his persistent claims that the 2020 presidential election was rigged. He extended these allegations to the current vote counting process in California, stating, "The same thing is happening again in California right now." Trump pointed to the slow pace of vote tabulation in the state, suggesting it was evidence of manipulation.

“

Is it appropriate that you can't even get close to the results five days after you vote?

When pressed by the interviewer for proof of his claims, Trump responded, "All I have to do is look. Is it appropriate that you can't even get close to the results five days after you vote?" He further accused California election officials and a significant portion of the U.S. media, including NBC News, of being "fakes" and "cheats."

“

They are fakes, just like you, and your press is fake.

The interview escalated when Trump directed insults at the interviewer, calling them either "a fake or a fool" and accusing them of playing into the hands of those who manipulate elections. He asserted that the interviewer and their television channel were aware of the alleged fraud. The situation culminated with Trump standing up and leaving the interview after a dispute concerning the acting U.S. Attorney General, Todd Blanche, stating, "Sorry. Enough. Let's go. Thank you, dear. Have fun."

Either you're a fake or a fool. You're falling for their game with this nonsense. You know these elections are rigged. Your television channels know they are rigged.
