Trump expressed his frustration about the media's treatment of him during his campaign, stating, "The press was obviously unfair to me. No president has ever gotten treated by the press like I was. And yet I got more votes than any Republican candidate in history, by far." This highlights Trump's belief in a biased media landscape against his candidacy.
During the interview, Trump described the questions he received from Welker as "pretty nasty" while still asserting that the interview allowed him the space to share his views, saying, "It's fair only in that you allowed me to say what I say." This underscores his perspective on media interactions.
Reflecting on interview styles, Trump commented on media biases stating, "I've seen George Stephanopoulos interview. But it's and he's a tough interviewer. It's the softest interview I've seen. They give these soft [interviews]." This illustrates his argument that media outlets often treat Democratic figures leniently.
In discussing the media's supposed lack of support for his policies, Trump stated, "You would think the press would like to see strong borders, great education, a powerful military. So we have a country left and all these different things, and somehow they don't want to see that." Here, he links media treatment to broader policy support.
