He wasn’t happy about the way he was questioned — and he’s threatening to pull the rug out from under their exclusive, which airs Sunday.
Trump’s interview with Leslie Stahl didn’t end happily, according to insiders.
In a subsequent Twitter message, the president declared his interview with Lesley Stahl to be “FAKE and BIASED.”
He also threatened to release footage of the interview early “for the sake of accuracy in reporting.” The move would be a serious blow to the network’s ratings.
Trump’s Democratic rival, Joe Biden, sat for his own interview with the award-winning newsmagazine on Monday.
Trump said that Biden’s treatment by the network was completely different than him, and urged voters to compare the two interviews.
