Meet the Press NOW
Trump left the interview after Kristen Welker pressed him to back up his California primary rigging claim.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump abruptly ended an NBC News Meet the Press interview with Kristen Welker after she challenged his unsubstantiated claims that California's recent primary was 'rigged.'
- Trump's allegations mirror the narrative he used regarding the 2020 presidential race, where he falsely claimed mail-in ballots proved Democrats were cheating, a thoroughly debunked argument he maintains.
- When asked for evidence, Trump responded there is 'tremendous evidence' backing his statement while also making unsubstantiated claims about FBI involvement in the January 6th Capitol attack.
- Donna Crane, a political science professor at San Jose State University, stated California's slow results stem from heavy reliance on mail-in ballots and uneven county investment in election hardware, not fraud.
- This incident parallels an April interview where Trump insulted CBS News host Norah O'Donnell after similar questioning, as experts warn he may peddle comparable conspiracy theories regarding the 2026 elections.

Trump Melts Down And Walks Off Meet The Press Interview When Asked For Election Rigging Proof
