Trump cuts off interview with Welker: ‘I’ve had enough’
- On Friday, President Donald Trump abruptly ended a taped interview with NBC's Meet the Press host Kristen Welker at a Wisconsin farm, removing his microphone and walking off set after she repeatedly pressed him for evidence of his election fraud claims.
- Tensions rose when Welker challenged Trump's claims that California's primary election was 'rigged,' pushing for evidence he insisted he possessed but never provided during the 50-minute session.
- Welker also questioned Trump about his proposed $1.8 billion 'anti-weaponization' fund; Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche stated the Justice Department would 'not move forward' with the initiative.
- Trump called NBC a 'one-sided crooked network' and crushed his microphone underfoot before leaving; Welker later spoke with him on Saturday, where both acknowledged weather 'complications' and he agreed to another interview.
- The confrontation underscores the high stakes for journalists covering Trump's ongoing promotion of unsubstantiated election fraud allegations, highlighting deepening tensions between the president and mainstream media.
