It was a simple question from President Donald Trump to CBS 60 Minutes interviewer Norah O’Donnell. Don’t you feel safer in Washington, D.C., where crime plummeted after the National Guard was called in to help clean up crime-filled neighborhoods?
But instead of answering yes or no, she bobbed and weaved to avoid giving Trump any credit for making the city safer, something the district’s liberal mayor has repeatedly done.
Trump pressed her: “You see a difference?” She demurred: “I think I’ve been working too hard. I haven’t been out and about that much.” Trump parried back: “Oh, that’s not a fair answer. You see the difference.” She deflected again: “I get in my car and go to work, and I go home.”
The exchange between Trump and O’Donnell during a portion of their 74-minute interview that was not aired on 60 Minutes, but posted online by CBS News on their 60 Minutes Overtime page:

Nora is one messed up journalist. Sad to see her become a Tucker.
Do a comparison of this combative interview with the lovefest that 60 Minutes had with Kamala Harris during the election, including editing the tape to make her look better. I would not be surprised to learn that they edited Trump’s interview to make him look worse.
“””Nora is one messed up journalist. “””
Nora is one messed up DEMOCRAT HACK.
They are propagandists, not journalists.
She was basically seething with hatred during the entire interview, you could almost see her clenched teeth. They must not be self aware, it was so obvious.
True, leftist activists.
I would be surprised if they didn’t edit it to make him look as bad as possible.
She is trying to keep her highly paid job.
I she made Trump look good it would be the end of her career with See BS.
She was disgusting. Constantly rolling her eyes, sarcastically smirking, he would start his answer and two words in she would interrupt and talk over him. That was just an argument, not an interview.
Very low quality interview skills.
Thirty years ago getting that much time with the President would be a sure fire TV coup.
It would have a BIG advertising blitz to make sure everyone knew that there was going to be lots of eyes watching CBS 60 Minutes Sunday night.
They would even have limited advertising to get every possible minute of the interview during the hour.
That they didn't air it just shows how deep the TDS runs in media.
CBS wants to make sure that the keep as many of their viewers in the anti-Trump camp as possible. Considering that most of the 60 Minutes viewership is in the over 50 crowd I don't know what they are worried about.
Are we really surprised?
Last time around Leslie stahl’s first question was why did DJT want to be POTUS.
What an absolutely asshole thing to ask.
Anything they can do to delegitimize the man they’re going to do.
The media ARE DEMOCRATS AND LIARS.
Who the hell at the this clueless WH
still allowing these ambush interviews with
well known Trump Haters
at
Tired expired frankly dead Hard Left 60 wasted minutes has nothing but retired
lefty Boomer viewers . Why bother .
Why give your Dedicated enemies Any Ratings ?
I am sick of these predictable Ambush Dem media interviews .
Trump is a fool to allow this .
Its a waste of time .
That woman is awful.
It wasn’t an interview, it was a hostile interrogation.
Spit.
My guess is that they did this on purpose to show that the MSM should have no credibility due to their bias.
One reason Trump won in 2024 because he was able to point out how rigged the system was and how they were out to get him.
“They must not be self aware…”
I believe they consider that a feature, not a bug. Either that or it’s in the job description as a requirement. As you note, it really doesn’t matter which as any discerning viewer easily identifies it.
perhaps Nora’s behavior will be the final straw that provokes bari weiss to fire her grossly biased ass ...
Hopefully so.
