Trump Calls For Investigation Into Harris’ Interview With ‘60 Minutes,’ Claiming It Was Grossly Edited
HuffPost
The ex-president baselessly claimed the interview was edited to make Harris look “more Presidential” and said the show “must be investigated.”
Former President Donald Trump has alleged, without offering any supporting evidence, that Vice President Kamala Harris’ interview with CBS News’ “60 Minutes” was grossly “sliced and diced” to make her look “more presidential” and coherent when answering questions.
In a Truth Social post early Wednesday, the Republican presidential nominee said Harris’ answers were “virtually incoherent” and edited “as many as four times in a single sentence or thought.”
Without explanation, he went on to say that the alleged editing could be a “major campaign finance violation.”
“The public is owed a MAJOR AND IMMEDIATE APOLOGY! This is an open and shut case, and must be investigated, starting today!” he wrote.
HuffPost has reached out to a Trump spokesperson for clarification on his allegations, including what evidence he has, but has not immediately received a response. A CBS representative also did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
