US President Donald Trump interrupted a television interview with NBC journalist Kristen Welker after a heated debate over his claims of irregularities in the California election.
During the show "Meet the Press", Trump stated that the electoral process in the American state is rigged and that there are problems with the vote count. However, when asked by the moderator for concrete evidence to support these accusations, he did not present facts, stating that he relied on what he "saw and heard."
The conversation became further tense when Welker disputed the president's claims and emphasized that the vote counting process in California takes place according to established rules and procedures.
At the height of the debate, Trump attacked the moderator and the media in general, accusing them of a lack of objectivity and corruption.
"You're either stupid or corrupt," he told the journalist during the interview.

A few moments later, the president decided to end the conversation and leave the studio.
"Let's leave it here, because I was bored. Thank you, honey, have a good time," Trump said, before taking off the microphone and walking away, as the moderator tried to continue the interview.
