It would be one thing if 60 Minutes released this footage, and Trump didn’t want it released. His sustained outburst over the interview would be understandable, but Trump released this footage.

Trump isn’t even trying to hide it.

Trump may soon be gone, but his legacy of causing pain and destruction to the American people could continue for years to come.
