Bari Weiss’s 60 Minutes edited its latest interview with Donald Trump to make the octogenarian’s responses appear much more sane than they actually were.

During one exchange between Trump and host Ross Douthat on the topic of Ukraine, the staff at 60 Minutes decided to trim several sections of Trump’s response that included false claims or total fabrications.

    When 60 Minutes edited Kamala Harris’s interview to make her look good, Trump sued them for $16 million. I’m sure he’ll apply the same standard here.

      I thought they didn’t even do it to make her look good, but it was to fit around commercial breaks or something and they still aired what she said?

        Correct, it was a totally meritless lawsuit that Paramount (already with Skydance in the driver’s seat, pre-merger close) settled with a nice big fat bribe.
