A simple query by a journalist to the leader of the free world.
Lesley Stahl: Are you ok with tough questions?
Donald Trump: No I'm not.
His answer here mirrors what he said when he stated that he takes no responsibility at all.
He's not prepared to do even a minimal level of work owning the responsibility of the office of POTUS.
Considering this, it's not surprising that his incredibly weak ego folded like a wet noodle and he decided to walk out of the interview after she did start asking tough questions.
We have a child as POTUS, and it's time for him to leave and for the grownups to take over.
Despite Trump getting grilled with tough questions for four years, you think this one simple exchange inverts what we have seen and heard the past four years with our own eyes and ears???

Apparently you haven’t seen him running away from tough questions the whole time? I certainly have.

Pretty funny considering Trump.has taken and answered more questions from the Press in the last month than Biden has in the last year.
And when "journalists" do see Creepy Joe come out of his basement long enough to get anywhere close to a microphone, they ask him riveting, hard hitting questions like "what kind of milkshake did you have"?
Leslie Stahl was obnoxious. She came into the interview determined to portray the president in the worst light possible. I couldn't believe it when she started to mock and laugh at his claims his campaign was spied upon. Either she is the most uniformed "journalist" or a coverup artist for the left. Probably both. It was sickening. I don't blame Trump for not continuing.
Gee, an obnoxious reporter and Trump's the only snowflake that's ever been faced with one of those.
Trump agreed to the interview KNOWING it wouldn't be a fireside chat. How stupid are you to agree to be interviewed by a known unfriendly entity, to then run out and demonstrate, not only that stupidity, but also your cowardice and weakness to millions of viewers. THEN to double down by releasing the tape yourself expecting the sympathy vote is just more confirmation of his complete inability to read the American mindset. They don't like/respect whimpy whiners.
She laughed because in the history of American politics - spying upon the opposition's campaign has been de-rigueur for all of the 1900's onward.
Looks more like Stahl should have asked, "Can I be obnoxious, interrupt while you are answering, and argue with you about your answers to my questions?"
We already had that with Savannah Guthrie. The media wants to dictate the narrative in this election, and I think Trump doesn't want to play into that. Why reward the media's bad behavior? Ask the question, let him answer, and then if you have a follow up question go right ahead. If you don't like his answers, then don't vote for him.
I used to remember interviews and debates that covered a wide variety of topics affecting the country. Today's reporters essentially take the headlines from Yahoo News and turn them into questions.
Right I mean public relations and answering tough questions when things go wrong is kind of one of the core responsibilities of a leader in any organization.

Stahl's "interruptions" were nothing more than a quick response to Trump's embellishment of the facts, his oft repeated phrase of "the best, most, greatest, etc, "IN THE HISTORY OF THE COUNTRY" needs to be shut down as soon as he makes the statement..No lying should be tolerated by good journalists, she did a great job but the sissy Trump failed spectacularly..
If he can’t take the heat it’s time to get out of the kitchen.
The POTUS is the most scrutinized and criticized job in the world.
Fragile egos need not apply.
I believe, based upon what I saw (CBS' snippet), is his position that he's always answering tough questions but Biden has gotten a pass. I'll have to watch both to pass judgement.
But we do know that last week, Biden went dark after Sunday until Thursday's debate, and has been pretty dark since.
