Following a 60 Minutes broadcast criticizing several of President-elect Trump’s cabinet nominees for lacking qualifications beyond loyalty, his spokesperson Steven Cheung denounced the show as “unhinged” and exhibiting “disgusting bias.” Cheung cited the segment’s discussion of nominees with past controversies, including allegations of misconduct against Matt Gaetz and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s stance on vaccinations. This prompted Cheung to reiterate Trump’s prior refusal of a 60 Minutes interview, framing the network’s reporting as out of touch with his voters. In contrast, Trump’s press secretary nominee defended the appointments, asserting they reflect the president’s mandate and prioritization of “America First.”

It’s truly mind-boggling how former President Donald Trump continues to exhibit his absurdity by threatening 60 Minutes over Vice President Kamala Harris’ recent interview. The hypocritical nature of his accusations is glaringly obvious, especially considering his own past experiences with edited coverage on Fox News. Trump’s demand for an investigation into CBS News and their editing practices seems to be yet another attempt to deflect attention from the fact that he himself is under investigation.
The sheer audacity of Trump’s call for an investigation into 60 Minutes is laughable when you consider the countless times his own interviews have been manipulated to make him appear more coherent or less outlandish.… Continue reading
Trump Gets Unhinged, Even for Him, Over Kamala Harris ‘60 Minutes’ Interview
The recent ’60 Minutes’ interview featuring Kamala Harris has garnered quite the reaction from none other than Donald Trump. The irony of the situation is palpable – Trump criticizing Harris for an interview he himself backed out of. It’s a classic move from the perpetual state of being unhinged that Trump resides in.

Donald Trump, the man who often prides himself on being tough and strong, has once again shown his true colors by backing out of a scheduled interview with CBS’ “60 Minutes.” In the opening segment of the show, correspondent Scott Pelley detailed how it has been a long-standing tradition for presidential candidates to sit down with “60 Minutes” in October before the election, but Trump decided to bail a week prior.

It’s quite telling when a candidate is afraid of being fact-checked because it implies that they have something to hide, that they want to spread lies without being held accountable for them.… Continue reading
As I sat down to watch the Moms for Liberty interview on 60 Minutes, I didn’t quite know what to expect. But let me tell you, it was an absolute disaster. Scott Pelley didn’t hold back in dismantling their arguments, and it was almost comical to watch these so-called “leaders” stumble over simple questions. The facade of their supposed expertise crumbled under the weight of their ignorance, leaving them looking foolish and unprepared.
One of the most striking aspects of the interview was their inability to provide coherent answers to basic questions. It was clear that they were grasping at straws, repeating empty talking points without any substance to back them up.… Continue reading
