On his 100th day in office Saturday, President Donald Trump spoke to CBS News' chief Washington correspondent and host of "Face the Nation," John Dickerson, about his accomplishments at the traditional milestone and beyond, before flying to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, to give a speech at a rally.
What follows is a full transcript of the interview, which aired on CBS and will air again on CBSN at 6 p.m. ET Sunday. Additional coverage of the interview will air Monday on "CBS This Morning," broadcasting live from the White House.
JOHN DICKERSON: Mr. President, you and the administration said to North Korea, "Don't test a missile." They have tested a missile. Is the pressure not working?
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Well, I didn't say, "Don't test a missile." He's going to have to do what he has to do. But he understands we're not going to be very happy. And I will tell you, a man that I've gotten to like and respect, the president of China, President Xi, I believe, has been putting pressure on him also. But so far, perhaps nothing's happened and perhaps it has. This was a small missile. This was not a big missile. This was not a nuclear test, which he was expected to do three days ago. We'll see what happens.
JOHN DICKERSON: You say, "Not happy." What does that mean?
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: I would not be happy. If he does a nuclear test, I will not be happy. And I can tell you also, I don't believe that the president of China, who is a very respected man, will be happy either.
JOHN DICKERSON: Not happy mean military action?
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: I don't know. I mean, we'll see.

Just read the interview. Trump pwn3d the leftist media Democrat.
Loved it.
I love it:
“What’s your biggest disappointment been?”
“You people.”
Wow that was a awesome interview
I don't LOL, but I did say "HA!" so loud I startled myself.
By saying that, President Trump just let Dickherson and the whole world know that the US Presidency is magnitudes larger and more powerful than this little quisling, and the entire RATaganda industry.
LOL! Wow! I thought so, too. Just a great interview. Trump is a destroyer, and needs one named after him.
What a morale booster that would be.
Ha ha......indeed, indeed!
FAKE NEWS all the way!
They did a nice tour of the White House. They're interviewing Ivanka right now. Jerrod just came in.
Trumpshiva! Destroyer of media empires. lol
Well, not yet, he’s only just begun to wound the beast.
But like a great bull fighter he’s got to wear it down
before he delivers the killing blow. All in good time! ;-)
