So why'd you do it, sir?

President Trump abruptly cut off an interview with the “60 Minutes” star Lesley Stahl at the White House on Tuesday and then taunted her on Twitter, posting a short behind-the-scenes video of her at the taping and noting that she had not been wearing a mask in the clip.

[...]

“Lesley Stahl of 60 Minutes not wearing a mask in the White House after her interview with me. Much more to come.”

[...]

In fact, Ms. Stahl had worn a mask at the White House up until the start of her taping with Mr. Trump, including when she first greeted the president, according to a person familiar with the interview.

The video posted on Mr. Trump’s Twitter feed showed Ms. Stahl immediately after the interview ended, as she conferred with two of her CBS producers, both of whom were wearing masks. The CBS crew was tested for the coronavirus before entering the White House on Tuesday, the person said.

One person briefed on what took place said that Mr. Trump had spent more than 45 minutes filming with Ms. Stahl and her CBS News crew, and that the taping had not wrapped up when the president’s aides had expected it to.

So Mr. Trump cut the interview short and then declined to participate in a “walk and talk” segment with Ms. Stahl and Vice President Mike Pence, the people said.

It appeared that Ms. Stahl’s approach did not sit well with the president.

He thought it was going to be a free campaign video, apparently.

At a rally in Erie, Pa., on Tuesday night, the president told supporters, “You have to watch what we do to ‘60 Minutes,’ you’ll get such a kick out of it,” adding, “Lesley Stahl is not going to be happy.”

God, he's nasty.

The president and Mr. Pence were participating in a “60 Minutes” episode set to air on Sunday evening. The episode is also expected to feature interviews with Mr. Biden and his running mate, Senator Kamala Harris of California.

Mr. Biden taped his interview with the “CBS Evening News” anchor Norah O’Donnell on Monday. He has not yet tweeted about it.

LOL.

Put up or shut up.

It was REALLY  bad, or he wouldn't acknowledge a problem.

Terrible electoral intrusion?  Who forced him to give the interview?

"I am pleased to inform you"?

As for Trump's threatened release of a tape, the network said that "the White House had agreed they were taping the interview for archival purposes only."
