On June 5, 2026, President Donald Trump participated in an interview with NBC during a visit to Wisconsin, where he was attending a roundtable on the rural economy. The interview was marked by interruptions due to weather conditions, including heavy rain. Trump expressed frustration during the interview, particularly when questioned about his claims of election fraud. He stated, "You're a one-sided, crooked network. Sorry. Let's call it quits because I've had enough," before leaving the interview. The discussion included topics such as Trump's Iran war strategy and his proposed program to compensate individuals he believes were victims of partisan prosecution. NBC host Kristen Welker challenged Trump on his claims, stating, "There is no evidence for what you're saying," to which Trump responded with accusations against the press and reiterated his claims regarding the 2020 election. After the interview, Welker mentioned that she had spoken with Trump about the weather disruptions and he had agreed to another interview.
