During the interview, Trump became agitated when Welker pressed him on his claims about “crooked” California elections, calling her “crooked or stupid” before walking off set.
Kimmel joked about Trump’s behavior, suggesting it was a “hissy fit” and aired a modified clip depicting Trump in a soiled diaper.
A White House spokesperson dismissed Kimmel’s commentary, stating, “Nobody in their right mind cares what seriously unfunny Jimmy Kimmel thinks.”
Trump later attributed his anger during the interview, which took place in a Wisconsin barn, to the rainy weather and “NBC fake news.”
