President Donald Trump pulled no punches on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga.; "washed up, Trump hating" Lesley Stahl; CBS; "60 Minutes"; and Paramount on Monday morning.
He called for Stahl and "60 Minutes" to issue an overdue and "too late" apology.
"I hereby demand a complete and total APOLOGY, though far too late to be meaningful, from Lesley Stahl and 60 Minutes for her incorrect and Libelous statements about Hunter's Laptop!!! President DJT," Trump wrote Monday morning on Truth Social.
Trump's post came one day after Greene engaged in a Trump-like back-and-forth with Stahl, who once tried to claim to Trump in an interview before the 2024 election that there was "no evidence" Democrats spied on his 2016 campaign.
"The only reason Marjorie 'Traitor' Brown (Green turns Brown under stress!) went BAD is that she was JILTED by the President of the United States (Certainly not the first time she has been jilted!)," Trump's wide-ranging post began. "Too much work, not enough time, and her ideas are, NOW, really BAD – She sort of reminds me of a Rotten Apple!
"Marjorie is not AMERICA FIRST or MAGA, because nobody could have changed her views so fast, and her new views are those of a very dumb person."
Trump did take note of her tense exchange with Stahl, offering his own review of the television performance.
"That was proven last night when washed up, Trump hating, 60 Minutes 'correspondent,' Lesley Stahl, who still owes me an apology from when she attacked me on the show (with serious conviction!), that Hunter Biden's LAPTOP FROM HELL was produced by Russia, not Hunter himself (TOTALLY PROVEN WRONG!), interviewed a very poorly prepared Traitor, who in her confusion made many really stupid statements," Trump's post continued.
"My real problem with the show, however, wasn't the low IQ traitor, it was that the new ownership of 60 Minutes, Paramount, would allow a show like this to air."
Trump's rebuke of Paramount comes just minutes after news broke that it was attempting a hostile takeover bid for Warner Bros., which Trump had already questioned as monopolistic, by Netflix the night prior on the Kennedy Center Honors red carpet.
"THEY ARE NO BETTER THAN THE OLD OWNERSHIP, who just paid me millions of Dollars for FAKE REPORTING about your favorite President, ME!" Trump added about Paramount.
"Since they bought it, 60 Minutes has actually gotten WORSE! Oh well, far worse things can happen."
