'60 Minutes' Airs Full Interview With Donald Trump, Including His Walk Out

Donald Trump‘s full interview with 60 Minutes debuted tonight (October 25) on CBS.

Correspondent Lesley Stahl discussed many issues, including the coronavirus pandemic, his promises to “suburban women”, and more, and challenged him on things that he has said, and he denied he actually said them.

One moment showed and noted all the people at his rallies that were not wearing masks during the pandemic, and the show cut in footage from his rally supporting the claim.

However, Trump insisted attendees were wearing masks, and he told Lesley, “You’re so negative. These are the biggest rallies we have ever had. You just come in here with that negative attitude. You just come in here with that negative attitude.”

Lesley also brought up the ploy to kidnap and kill Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer, and she pointed out during one of his rallies in the same state where he chanted along to his supporters to “lock her up”.

She said to him, “You are very powerful, and the people who love you, love you with passion. And if you go after somebody the way you’ve been going after her, they take it to heart.”

“I haven’t gone after her,” Trump said. However, the footage proved otherwise.

Trump exited the interview in the middle of it, with Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany coming back with a binder that was his healthcare plan for the country. It’s not blank, but Lesley stated that there was no clear plan in the pages she was handed.

Trump Attacks '60 Minutes' Host Lesley Stahl After Walking Out on Interview

President Donald Trump has launched an attack against Lesley Stahl, the veteran host of CBS’ 60 Minutes, after he cut their interview short.

Stahl was at the White House for an interview with the president on Tuesday (October 20) and it is being reported that “Mr. Trump had grown irritated with Ms. Stahl’s lines of questioning,” according to the New York Times.

After filming for 45 minutes with Stahl and the CBS News crew, Trump decided to cut the interview short and he declined to do a “walk and talk” segment. It was reported that “the taping had not wrapped up when the president’s aides had expected it to.”

Trump took to Twitter to share a video of Stahl not wearing a mask, but the Times reports that she was wearing a mask before the interview and even when she greeted the president for the first time. The video was taken immediately after the interview ended and before she put her mask back on.

“I am pleased to inform you that, for the sake of accuracy in reporting, I am considering posting my interview with Lesley Stahl of 60 Minutes, PRIOR TO AIRTIME! This will be done so that everybody can get a glimpse of what a FAKE and BIASED interview is all about,” Trump tweeted. “Everyone should compare this terrible Electoral Intrusion with the recent interviews of Sleepy Joe Biden!”

'60 Minutes' Correspondent Lesley Stahl Details Her Hospital Stay & Recovery From Coronavirus

Lesley Stahl revealed on 60 Minutes this weekend that she was one of many who had been diagnosed with coronavirus, and opened up about her experience while staying in the hospital and her recovery.

“One of the rules of journalism is ‘Don’t become part of the story,’ but instead of covering the pandemic, I was one of the more than 1 million Americans who did become part of it,” the veteran newscaster shared on the program.

Lesley revealed that she spent almost two weeks in bed, “weak, fighting pneumonia and really scared” before she decided to go to the hospital.

Once there, she “found an overworked, nearly overwhelmed staff. Every one of them kind, sympathetic, gentle and caring from the moment I arrived until the moment days later when I was wheeled out through a gauntlet of cheering medical workers.”

“In the face of so much death, they celebrate their triumphs.”

Lesley went on, praising the staff for all they did for her and other patients.

“This valiant army in scrubs and masks was not just doing a job; they were fulfilling a mission, answering the call,” she said. “Thanks to them, like so many other patients, I am well now. Tonight, we all owe them our gratitude, our admiration — and in some cases, our lives.”

Lesley joined a few other notable journalists who have contracted the virus including Chris Cuomo and George Stephanopoulos.
