CBS News said Tuesday that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has declined to participate in an interview with “60 Minutes” for its election special, which will go forward next Monday with Democratic opponent Kamala Harris alone.

Television’s top-rated news program regularly invites the two presidential contenders for separate interviews that air back-to-back on a show near the election. This year, it is scheduled for Monday instead of its usual Sunday time slot.

Asked for comment, the former president’s campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said, “Fake news,” adding that there were discussions but nothing was ever locked in.

    Lol. The orange asshole wouldn’t get within a mile of 60 Minutes because he knows he’d be shredded to bits.

      CNN is owned by right wing billionaires. In fact pretty much all US major media is. So “shredding” is unlikely. More likely they would continue sanewashing the fascist conman and excusing all his dementia rambles.
