Trump Just Posted His 60 Minutes Interview Early, and Everyone Basically Had the Same Response

LESLEY STAHL: "You're okay with some tough questions?"

TRUMP: "No, I'm not."

STAHL: "You're not okay with tough questions?"

Trump thinks this looks *good* for him!!! pic.twitter.com/fhfPUnpFwn

Grilled by Stahl about the irresponsibility of holding huge rallies that make a mockery of public health precautions during a pandemic, Trump has no defense other than insulting her and lying pic.twitter.com/UowM4rRrjE

Make sure every single person you know sees this:

"I hope that they end it."

This is President Trump on 60 Minutes telling Judge Amy Coney Barrett and the Supreme Court to rip away health care from millions.

"It's going to be announced very soon" -- Trump is still out here touting his fake health care plan that he said would be announced in 2 weeks 3 months ago. Completely beyond parody. pic.twitter.com/UJuVbVTjcm

Trump's 60 Minutes interview with Lesley Stahl ended with him whining about her asking him tough questions and storming out in a huff pic.twitter.com/zuiwYpKnFb

So he... posted video that made him look terrible and he thinks it's a win?

Trump just posted video from the interview he cut off.

Randomly skipped to the 12-min mark.

First bit I saw was Trump getting mad at Stahl for pointing out his rallies aren't as big as they used to be.

How he thought this helped him is beyond me. pic.twitter.com/deTY4fjNOD

Honestly, Trump's behavior in that interview is disgraceful.

Whoever told him it was a good idea to put this out, or didn't stop him, is either interested in seeing him lose or is so deep in the cult they can't see the forest for the trees.

He's abusive, insane and not well.

Mr. Trump is so disoriented, so detached from reality, in such a worrisome psychological state that he convinced himself -- if no one else -- the releasing the "60 Minutes" interview, in which he comes across as delicate, as fragile, as a snowflake, makes him look good.

Imagine releasing the “60 Minutes" interview, believing it makes you look good. Trump is untethered from reality.

Wait, Trump thinks that 60 Minutes interview makes him look good?

The thing about this interview is that Trump is just saying nonsense and Stahl is pointing out calmly that it is nonsense.

She is no more combative than, say, @jonathanvswan, whom Trump said did a good interview.

I don't see bias, hatred or rudeness from Lesley Stahl, I see a dogged & polite journalist trying to get answers about the pandemic, unemployment, and other issues and a president determined to deny reality. (Ex: No respected health official thinks we're “turning the corner.") https://t.co/xoKhhfsIAW

President Trump: They spied on my campaign,..

Lesley Stahl: Well, there's no-- real evidence of that.

DT: They spied on my campaign and they got caught--

LS: No...this is 60 Minutes. And we can't put on things we can't verify.
