NBC reporter’s seven-word claim that ‘triggered’ Trump and caused him to storm off

Donald Trump’s clash with Kristen Welker laid bare the raw distrust between the former president and the mainstream press. What began as a combative but controlled exchange over his baseless claims of a “rigged” 2020 election spiraled when Welker calmly replied, “There’s no evidence of what you’re saying.” Those seven words cut straight through his narrative, and his demeanor hardened almost instantly. Calling NBC a “one-sided crooked network,” he abruptly ended the interview, thanking Welker with icy sarcasm before walking off.
