Trump’s Excuse For Dodging ’60 Minutes’ Is Pure ‘Dear Leader,’ Say Critics

 

 

Donald Trump’s unwillingness to sit for an interview for CBS News’ “60 Minutes” — and the excuse given for his no-show — prompted mockery on social media.

The show announced Tuesday that the former president and current GOP nominee had backed out of a sit-down interview after initially agreeing to one.

Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung, however, claimed “nothing was ever scheduled or locked in” and that, “They also insisted on doing live fact checking, which is unprecedented.”

Critics mocked serial fabulist Trump over the fact-check concern as his reason for avoiding the program and called him “afraid.”

Democratic rival Kamala Harris has agreed to an interview on the show.
