President Trump abruptly ended his 60 Minutes interview on Tuesday because he did not like the tough questions posed by CBS journalist Lesley Stahl, who quizzed him on his response to the coronavirus pandemic and questioned the size of his campaign rally crowds, according to a new report. The president walked out of the sit-down just 45 minutes into the meeting, telling the network he believed he had given them enough material before accusing them of being biased towards Democratic rival Joe Biden. Trump later threatened to release footage of the encounter before its scheduled airtime on Sunday, in a bid to expose the 'fake and biased' interview. Sources told The Washington Post late Tuesday that Trump had cut the interview short because he was unhappy with Stahl's hardball approach and was worried the back-and-forth would be edited to portray him in an unflattering light. Stahl had reportedly prefaced the conversation by asking Trump if he was 'ready for a tough interview', before grilling him on his administration's handling of the pandemic, his exchanges with Dr Anthony Fauci, and his remarks about Democratic Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer. She also brought up the allegations against Joe Biden's son Hunter, which the president has seized on during his campaign rallies seeking to portray the Bidens as a 'crime family' just days before the election. Stahl during the interview told Trump the claims against Hunter were unverified and also said the Obama administration did not spy on his campaign, insiders told the publication. About 45 minutes later, Trump told his staff, 'I think we're done, do you guys agree?' before leaving the room to complain to his aides. Trump reportedly told them that Biden, who was interviewed by the network earlier, had had an easier interview and believed the video footage of his discussion with Stahl was going to be cut to 'make him look bad.'
