US President Donald Trump angrily stormed out of an interview with broadcaster NBC on Sunday after he was confronted over his unfounded claims of election fraud in the 2020 presidential race.

"You're a one-sided, crooked network. Sorry.
Let's call it quits because I've had enough.

Thank you, darling. Have a good time,"
Trump told "Meet the Press" host Kristen Welker before standing up and walking out of the interview that aired at the weekend.

This wasn’t just a Hollywood speech. This was a full-on moral indictment. Meryl Streep — who has been attacked by T/r/u/m/p for her unwavering support of transgender individuals and her belief that “trans children are God’s children” — flipped the script entirely. Instead of backing down, she grounded her message in the very values T/r/u/m/p tried to weaponize.
I don't agree with the mutilation of children to remedy confusion. But I do agree that those children are still close to the heart of God. I'm glad she stood up to Trump. Human trafficking at the border is so easily covered up. It's sickening. And THAT is an insult to Jesus. Inasmuch as you've done it unto the least of these, you have done it unto HIM! And every Trump supporter is participant in this.

So? This thread is about Trump and Politics.
As I've said, we've had presidents before Trump who were also despicable people. Some of them actually did reasonably good jobs. So far, Trump hasn't done very well.

So, according to you there was No cheating.
Trump's own AG said that claims of the election being stolen were false. But there certainly was some cheating on the part of a number of Trump voters. However, it is not true that only Trump voters fraudulently voted. At least one Biden voter did so as well. It just wasn't even close to enough to change the outcome.

The Facts

Voter fraud still looms large in public conversation, as Trump's supporters continue to make the false allegation that the Republican Party won the 2020 presidential election.

Indeed, the January 6 committee continues to examine the extent to which Trump encouraged supporters to the US Capitol following the results.

Although erroneous claims questioning the Biden win persist, multiple reports by Newsweek and other outlets show that most of those charged with voter fraud were, in fact, Republican voters.

These included three Florida residents alleged to have cast multiple ballots and a Pennsylvania man who admitted he had registered his dead mother.

In October 2021, a Republican supporter from Nevada who claimed that someone else voted using his dead wife's name was himself charged with voter fraud, after prosecutors said he had submitted the fraudulent ballot.

These well-publicized cases have drawn plenty of attention, but Dash Dobrofsky is wrong to claim Democratic party supporters are entirely fault-free when it comes to voter fraud.

Admittedly, the numbers here are very low. Newsweek has found one known case of a Biden voter charged with voter fraud; Kelvin Bolton, a prisoner in North Florida, said he voted for the U.S. president following a series of prisoner outreach efforts of the Alachua County Supervisor of Elections.

He sure lost it with Kristen Welker on Meet The Press.
She is one of the most respected journalists in the United States.
His face got red, he started sweating, it looked like he was going to explode.
Poor guy, did not want to be put under pressure by a female journalist.
Resorted to calling her "dumb and stupid."
He lost it.......the "leader of the free world".

Americans are coming to a conclusion on that. It's not good for him.

And some Americans already know, an agreed willingness to participate in a news network interview…
is conducted according to pre-planned TOPICS.
If, when the interviewer STRAYS off TOPIC, the one being interviewed has no obligation to continue, and most likely is irritated their time was wasted under false pretenses.

Facts are enlightening. You should make an effort, to be enlightened.

I am Australian so not involved in American politics but the filtered news we get here is that under President Trump, Tom Holman has stopped a lot of the illegal trafficking including children & drugs. Are you saying it is worse under Trump than under Biden?

I don't think his meltdown was due to a lack of pre-planning. If the interviewer agreed in advance to avoid questions that would be difficult for Trump to answer, shame on her for agreeing to such a thing, and shame on her for reneging on it. But I don't think a responsible journalist would agree to protect a political figure that way.

Where was he when Trump and Epstein were having fun together?

Yes — there is documented evidence that Jeffrey Epstein and his close associate Ghislaine Maxwell engaged in child sex trafficking and that minors were procured for sexual abuse; court filings, federal charges and Maxwell’s conviction establish trafficking as central to the criminal record [1] [2] [3]. What remains contested is the scope: whether Epstein “lent” or trafficked underage girls to a broader network of powerful third parties is supported by victims’ statements and voluminous investigative files but has not produced prosecutorial charges beyond Maxwell

WASHINGTON, Sept 21 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan accepted a $50,000 bag of cash from an undercover FBI agent last year in a since-closed U.S. Justice Department bribery investigation, two sources familiar with the matter said on Sunday.
In the alleged scheme, Homan promised immigration-related government contracts when he joined the Trump administration in exchange for the money, the sources said, speaking anonymously to discuss nonpublic investigations.


So I'm not all that confident that Holman will do much about the issue.

It is still going on and Trump is not stopping it. Children are still being trafficked. Trump himself has been a huge participant in human/child trafficking since way before he was in politics. Research it.

The Republican program Trump supports is more patriotic than inclusive. Why do Democrats, the schools, the media, the entertainment all support a more "inclusive" model of politic?

The USA Democratic party is "inclusive" is you are FOR :

1.) Gay 'Rights", Gay "Pride", "'Gay Adoption".
2.) Transgendered Children and Teens
3.) Abortion on Demand including the 9th Month.
4.) Citizenship and Voting rights, and Food Stamps, and Free Education, and Free Health care given to ILLEGAL Aliens.
5.) No Prayer or Bibles in Schools.
6.) No Guns allowed to be owned by Adults.
7.) No Captial Punishment

And that is just the short list of what you must agree to believe in, if you want to be INCLUDED in the Democratic Party in the USA.

A.) Just vote NO to all that, and next time around, Vote for Vance, or Rudio, or Gabbard, or similar who have God given sense, and refuse that demonic list that the Democratic Party uses as their Platform.

You appear to have difficulty understanding.

A topic / or topics are agreed on.
Not necessary to discuss what is not agreeable.

Stopping an interview because one overstepped the agreement is not a meltdown… :rolleyes: nor is telling the overstepping interviewer your view on their tactics, a meltdown.
Silly comment.
