“Then a week ago,” Pelley said, “Trump backed out. The campaign offered shifting explanations. First it complained that we would fact-check the interview. We fact-check every story,” Pelley said. “Later, Trump said he needed an apology for his interview in 2020. Trump claims correspondent Leslie Stahl said in that interview that Hunter Biden’s controversial laptop came from Russia. She never said that.

Trump broke a 50-year tradition so his false world would not be challenged. He apparently wants to make sure voters cannot base their decisions about the country’s future on facts. Hiding reality is in keeping with his continued refusal to release his tax returns or a medical report—even after the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania—or the video from the incident at Arlington National Cemetery, instead insisting that people take him at his word about what happened.
Trump is falling apart. He knows it, his team knows it and they’re betting that not being interviewed is safer than falling apart.
Why?
Because people will compare him to Harris’ interview and say he fell apart. That he didn’t answer the questions. That he kept changing the subject. Tha he didn’t understand the question.
It is because he knows he was destroyed by Harris in the debate.
His fear is being compared to Harris and looking lesser.
Because he is lesser.

Yet he claims he won the debate because the non-existent audience was cheering him.
