In a post on Truth Social, he denounced the show as &#8220;Lowly rated Meet the Fake Press,&#8221; claiming it focused excessively on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/clay-travis-maria-taylor-trying-to-extort-espn-by-inciting-scandal-leaking-rachel-nichols-audio\/\" title=\"Clay Travis: Maria Taylor \u2018Trying To Extort ESPN\u2019 By Inciting Scandal, Leaking Rachel Nichols Audio\">recent leak<\/a> from a <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">group chat<\/a> while neglecting important issues like U.S. relations with Iran and peace talks involving Russia and Ukraine. Trump accused Welker of wasting his management&#8217;s time and accused NBC&#8217;s parent company, Comcast, and its CEO, Brian Roberts, of dishonesty. Despite this criticism, Trump discussed various topics during the interviews, including the Signal chat leak, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/newsom-vetoes-transgender-child-custody-bill\/\" title=\"Newsom rejects bill on transgender child custody.\">potential tariffs<\/a>, and his views on Russian President Vladimir Putin.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Trump launches tirade against NBC, Kristen Welker&rsquo;s Meet the Press<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2075149\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>President <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Donald Trump<\/a> raged against NBC and its <em>Meet the Press<\/em> host, Kristen Welker, on Sunday, just after speaking to the outlet in two <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/prince-harry-reportedly-wanted-to-interview-trump-putin-about-childhood-traumas-for-spotify\/\" title=\"Prince Harry Reportedly Wanted To Interview ..., Putin About Childhood Traumas For Spotify\">wide-ranging interviews<\/a> over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>In a Truth Social <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/posts\/114254008984567465\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"post\">post<\/a>, Trump blasted the Sunday show, which he dubbed the &ldquo;Lowly Rated Meet the Fake Press,&rdquo; for focusing its coverage mainly on the stunning <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/signal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Signal<\/a> group chat leak that was revealed just last week.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3363801\/trump-to-travel-to-saudi-arabia-for-first-foreign-trip-report\/\">Trump to travel to Saudi Arabia for first foreign trip: Report<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3363788\/nps-remove-white-house-magnolia-tree-planted-andrew-jackson\/\">National Park Service to remove White House magnolia tree planted by Andrew Jackson<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3363792\/trump-hints-running-for-unconstitutional-third-term\/\">Trump hints at running for unconstitutional third term: &#8216;I&#8217;m not joking&#8217;<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;Kristen Welker&rsquo;s entire first half hour of the Lowly Rated Meet the Fake Press this morning, was devoted to the boring Signal Witch Hunt.
