President Donald Trump said he may release a transcript of an interview he taped for the CBS News program “60 Minutes” on Tuesday, saying it would show bias by the reporter, Lesley Stahl.
The interview is scheduled to be broadcast Sunday, but Trump threatened to release it in advance in a tweet. In another tweet earlier Tuesday, he criticized Stahl for not wearing a face mask after their interview, a hint that the conversation was contentious.
