Extended Interview: President Trump on 60 Minutes (Video)

In this 8 November 2026 published 60 Minutes video, President Trump sits down with Ross Douthat to discuss Republican losses in the midterm elections, the wars in Iran and Ukraine, the economy, and more.
President Trump attributed the Republican electoral collapse to “bad messaging” and failing to effectively communicate their record to voters. He expressed a strong desire to work with the new Democratic majority in Congress on immigration reform, though he noted some hard-right deportation policies had been “too tough”. Shortly after the interview, Chief of Staff Susie Wiles was replaced by Stephen Miller, the hardline architect of Trump’s mass deportation policies. Despite widespread public calls for the resignation of Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Trump stated he retains full confidence in him. Trump pointed to personal animosity between Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Vladimir Putin as the chief obstacle to peace ahead of planned diplomatic talks in Abu Dhabi. The interview took a highly unusual and philosophical turn when Douthat questioned the 80-year-old president on his mortality, surviving assassination attempts, and his inability to forgive his political enemies.
