Barbara Walters’ 1990 Trump Interview Resurfaces, Sparking Viral Debate
A resurfaced 1990 Barbara Walters interview with Donald Trump reveals a consistent pattern of behavior. Walters directly challenged Trump’s claims of business success, citing information from his bankers contradicting his narrative of financial triumph. Trump attempted to deflect these accusations, but Walters resolutely presented evidence of his financial struggles, particularly concerning the Plaza Hotel. The resurfaced clip highlights Trump’s long-standing tendency to deny criticism and portray himself in a positive light, even in the face of contradictory evidence. This interview foreshadows Trump’s later behavior and rhetoric.
