Overview
- President Donald Trump abruptly ended a Meet the Press interview after a tense exchange with Kristen Welker when she pressed him to produce evidence that the 2020 election was stolen.
- The recorded interview, held in Wisconsin and broadcast on Sunday, shows Trump accusing NBC and other major networks of being corrupt before removing his microphone and leaving the set.
- Welker repeatedly told Trump he had not offered proof for his claims and tried to move the conversation to other topics while the two argued for about ten minutes before the walkout.
- The broadcast also included policy remarks from Trump about international issues, including comments on Mojtaba Khamenei and Israel‑Hezbollah tactics, which were not resolved by the exit.
- Welker said she later spoke with Trump and he agreed to a more in‑depth follow-up interview, a development that keeps questions about evidence, press access, and campaign messaging active.
