Former President Donald Trump recently spoke out about the loss of public trust in the media and responded to criticisms regarding his comments about Liz Cheney. Trump accused '60 Minutes' of selectively editing an interview with Vice President Harris and labeled The Washington Post and other outlets as 'corrupt,' stating that they lack credibility.
Regarding the allegations against '60 Minutes,' CBS News denied doctoring the Harris interview and emphasized that the program did not hide any part of the vice president's response. The network cited the First Amendment in refusing to release the full transcript.
Trump's remarks about Liz Cheney at an event in Glendale, Arizona, drew attention. He criticized Cheney, calling her a 'very dumb individual' and a 'nutty war hawk' who advocated for military intervention. Trump's comments prompted a strong response from Cheney, who accused him of threatening those who oppose him and behaving like a dictator.
Looking ahead to the 2024 presidential election, Trump highlighted the economy and border crisis as reasons for his potential candidacy. He expressed concern about the nation's decline but urged people to vote to bring about change.
