Trump’s 60 Minutes Interview Is An Even Bigger Disaster Than Reported

Stahl: But that’s what you told me–

President Trump: You’ve discredited yourself.

Stahl: You know, I didn’t want to have this kind of angry- –

President Trump: Of course you did.

Stahl: No, I didn’t-

President Trump: Of course you did–

Stahl: –No, I didn’t.

President Trump: Well, then you brought up a lot of subjects that were inappropriately brought up–

Stahl: Well, I said, I’m gonna ask you tough questions.

But–

President Trump: They were inappropriately brought up. Right from the beginning. No, your first question was, “This is going to be tough questions.” You don’t ask Joe Biden, I saw your interview with Joe, the interview with Joe Biden.

Stahl: I never did a Joe Biden interview-

President Trump: It was a joke. The interview, “60 minutes.” I see Joe Biden, giving softball after softball. I’ve seen all of his interviews. He’s never been asked a question that’s hard.

Stahl: Okay, but forget him for a minute. You’re president–

President Trump: No, but you start with me.

Stahl: You’re president, and-

President Trump: Excuse me, Leslie, you started with me. Your first statement was, “Are you ready for tough questions?”

Stahl: Are you?

President Trump: That’s no way to talk. That’s no way to talk.

Leslie, one, one second.

Stahl: At this point, one of our producers interrupted to advise about the time remaining in the interview.
