Donald Trump crowed over CBS’s parent company paying him millions to settle a lawsuit in an unaired segment of his “60 Minutes” interview Sunday. (Watch the video below.)
The president told correspondent Norah O’Donnell that Democratic foe Kamala Harris “failed because she couldn’t speak” and was not “very intelligent.” He pointed to the former vice president’s interview with the CBS news show as an example.
“And actually ‘60 Minutes’ paid me a lot of money,” he said to O’Donnell. “And you don’t have to put this on because I don’t want to embarrass you.”
Trump pivoted to praising CBS News’ new editor-in-chief, the conservative journalist Bari Weiss, before resuming his gloating ― which was likely intended to embarrass the network.
“But ‘60 Minutes’ was forced to pay me a lot of money because they took [Harris’] answer out that was so bad,” Trump continued. “It was election-changing two nights before the election and they put a new answer in and they paid me a lot of money for that. You can’t have fake news. You’ve got to have legit news.”
