Only Trump and his sycophants called it a hoax.

They were literally handed a blueprint of what trump and his minions were going to do, and people voted for him anyways. Fuck each and every one of them.

An irate Trump pulled the plug on his Meet the Press interview Sunday — lashing out at Welker and calling NBC "a one-sided crooked network."

‘I’ve Had Enough!’ Trump Storms Out of Meet the Press Interview in Wild Fashion — Explodes On NBC’s Kristen Welker After She Hits Him With Fact Checks

President Donald Trump stormed out of a Meet the Press interview Sunday — after moderator Kristen Welker repeatedly fact-checked his claims on a variety of topics including; Jan. 6, his “anti-weaponization” fund, and election fraud.

The heated six-minute final block of the interview began with Welker pressing Trump about the $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund he continues to promote — despite his administration officially abandoning its efforts to launch the fund. Welker pressed — attempting to confirm that Trump is indeed throwing in the towel.

“Just to be very clear, are you backing off the fund completely as your acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has said, or are you looking for another avenue to revive the fund?” Welker asked.

Trump can't stand fact checks. He prefers telling dramatic lies to anything resembling real life facts.

Republicans are ripping away food assistance from working people, citing phony allegations of “widespread fraud.”But when it comes to Trump pardoning criminals who were ACTUALLY CONVICTED of healthcare fraud, they’re silent.

That is some wild, unhinged stuff from the President. Welker is a good person and honest journalist and didn’t deserve that but more importantly we have a president who constantly pushes conspiracy theories with zero evidence and can’t respond when politely challenged on that.

Here's the full chain of events that led to Trump storming out of his interview with Kristin Welker, beginning with her pressing him on the weaponization fund, continuing with her pointing out the baselessness of his "rigged election" lies, and concluding with him calling her.
