Was this on purpose?
or
Just a mistake?
Regardless it’s hilarious!
As WLT Report reported earlier on Sunday, President Trump walked out of his interview with NBC’s Kristen Welker after she refused to accept President Trump’s claims that election fraud was occurring in the Los Angeles’ mayoral race.
In the interview Welker pushed Trump to provide evidence that election fraud was occurring in California to which the 47th President responded that all officials “have to do is look.”
Welker continued to not accept Trump’s response which resulted in Trump leaving the interview.
As Trump left the interview he dropped his microphone and then stepped on it.
In a video of the incident you can hear the moment Trump’s foot crushed the microphone.
Watch the moment it happened here:

USA Today reported more on the interview and what led to President Trump walking away from it:
As Welker and Trump discussed the California races, including the vote-tallying process, Welker noted “that’s how they count the votes in California.” Trump responded, asking, “Do you know why they’re doing that? Because they’re cheating on the election.”
Welker then asked Trump if he had evidence to support his claims, and the president responded that “all I have to do is look” and “I listen to people.” The NBC anchor again asked for evidence of election fraud and repeated that the typical dayslong process is “how they count the votes in California.”
Trump then questioned if it’s appropriate to count votes five days after Election Day, and Welker said California officials are urging a quick vote count but have pointed out that the process is slow.
Trump told Welker that “they’re crooked just like you’re crooked, your press is crooked and ‘Meet the Press’ is crooked.” Welker denied the accusations, and Trump said her questions played into “their hands.”
Welker urged Trump to continue the interview as he called her “either stupid or crooked.” The president also criticized other news outlets, including ABC, CBS and CNN.
Trump then looked to end the interview, appearing to remove his microphone to throw it.
ADVERTISEMENT“Sorry. Let’s call it quits because I’ve had enough,” Trump said. “Thank you, darling. Have a good time.”
When Welker told Trump she traveled to Wisconsin for the interview, as “MTP” is typically filmed on set in Washington, he responded that “I sat in the rain with you for an hour.” As Welker tried to continue the conversation, Trump said he sat “on and off in the rain, and I’ve given you enough time. You ought to straighten out your press.”
