## Resource

Trump walked out of his “Meet the Press” interview after a fiery exchange with host Kristen Welker, fueled by his defense of January 6 defendants and his repeated claims about election fraud. He pushed back against the idea that those convicted — including those who assaulted officers — were unfairly targeted, insisting they were victims of law enforcement “weaponization” and deserved compensation from a proposed fund. Welker challenged his election assertions with no evidence, pointing out ballot counting delays don’t prove rigging. The tension escalated until Trump abruptly removed his mic and left, later joking the rain may have contributed — but the abrupt exit left listeners wondering if he’d had enough of the tough questioning.
