Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrumpI am pleased to inform you that, for the sake of accuracy in reporting, I am considering posting my interview with Lesley Stahl of 60 Minutes, PRIOR TO AIRTIME! This will be done so that everybody can get a glimpse of what a FAKE and BIASED interview is all about...

(24,053 posts)his attacks on the media are meant to "discredit" journalists so that negative stories about him would not be believed...

Donnie doesn't play nice like the other kids. Three out of four seemed to come out unscathed. He creates his own problems, "like no one has ever seen before."

The president also sent out an attack tweet about Stahl, posting a six-second video of her not wearing a mask at the White House just a few weeks after COVID-19 raced through the building.
Jeez, he was even deceptive about Stahl not wearing a mask during a previous interview. Meanwhile, he very rarely wears a mask.
Their lies and deceptions have gone from the normal shitstorm to full-blown shit-hurricane strength.
