Trump wants 'apology' from 60 Minutes after dropping out of interview



https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-harris-presidential-election-polls-news-live-updates-b2624670.html



Donald Trump is holding a rally in Juneau, Wisconsin on Sunday afternoon, where he demanded that 60 Minutes give him an “apology.”

Trump backed out of the interview on Tuesday, just ahead of the vice presidential debate on CBS, the same network that airs 60 Minutes.

You should be in jail. Why Aren’t You? You’re a serial lying morally degenerate con man with 34 felony convictions. A judge says you’re a rapist. You stole Secret documents from my country. A Seaman in the Navy who might leave one classified document on their desk unaccompanied would receive more punishment than you ever have received. You con poor, stupid people into giving you money. You refer to my fellow veterans who gave the ultimate sacrifice as suckers and losers. You lie easier than you breathe. Maybe your supporters can tell me why you aren’t in jail. My guess is because you and them have conservative values.

he brings his traveling perpetual victim whine-fest to small mostly white Republican-friendly townships, purposely avoiding big cities and yet he still can't fill seats in a high school auditorium...

"We are sorry you are such a f*cking butt-hurt wimp that can't take one ounce of criticism or hard questions. We are sorry that you are a tiny little man, with tiny little hands, and tiny little crowds. We are sorry that you will be going to jail soon after being convicted 34 TIMES by your own state of New York. We are sorry that you have to pay more than $80 million to E. Jean Carroll because you couldn't keep your trap shut after being found liable in another court. We are sorry that you have lost nearly every court case on the docket, and have been laughed out of court or denied legally by others. We are sorry that you 'hire only the best' but don't pay them, so they won't ever do crap for you again. We are sorry that many former members of your own administration have gone publicly to state how much a dolt you are. Oh, sorry not sorry. FOAD. Look it up, orange clown."

I transcribed his remarks.

A reporter asked Trump about the 60 Minutes interview.

His answer:

Well, right now I went to, they came to me, would like me to do an interview, but first I want to get an apology 'cause the last time I did an interview with them, if you remember, they challenged me on the computer. They said the laptop from hell was from Russia and I said it wasn't from Russia it was from Hunter and I never got an apology so I'm sort of waiting. I'd love to do 60 Minutes. I do everything. I mean I do you right now right and um you're a lot tougher than 60 Minutes. If you remember Leslie Stahl we got into a little bit of an argument on the camera talking about that and other things and you know they really owed me an apology. I wouldn't mind doing uh 60, I've done 60 Minutes a lot. I did 60 Minutes twice with Mike Wallace, the great Mike Wallace, he was great.

and pulling hair out of her head. After all, he blamed her for recommending the plastic surgeon whose hair transplant didn't give him the result he wanted, triggering the vicious assault.
