<p>President Donald Trump weighed in on recently ousted &#8220;60 Minutes&#8221; anchor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/somewhere-cbs-newsman-scott-pelley-is-chewing-the-hell-out-of-his-innocent-glasses">Scott Pelley</a>, referring to the former CBS News personality as a &#8220;stiff.&#8221;</p>
<p>Trump made the comments during an appearance on the Wednesday episode of Miranda Devine&#8217;s podcast, &#8220;Pod Force One,&#8221; where he argued that Pelley was one of a number of legacy media personalities who truly didn&#8217;t care about the United States. It&#8217;s unclear whether the podcast was recorded prior to Pelley getting the boot from &#8220;60 Minutes&#8221; executive producer Nick Bilton.</p>
<p>Trump explained his most recent battery of tests to Devine — a physical and a cognitive test — which he said he took out of an &#8220;obligation&#8221; to show the American people that he was more than fit for the job he was doing, and Devine asked whether the memory portions of the cognitive test were difficult.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&#8220;I have a great memory, I have a good — look, so far so good,&#8221; Trump chuckled, adding, &#8220;I hope I&#8217;m going to keep it that way. If I don&#8217;t, you&#8217;ll be the first to know, you&#8217;ll say, this interview, this isn&#8217;t the same Trump! I think he&#8217;s lost it!&#8221;</p>
<p>Devine pivoted to Pelley then, noting that he&#8217;d interviewed former President Joe Biden just after special counsel Robert Hur had done so. And despite Hur&#8217;s assertion that Biden shouldn&#8217;t be charged in the classified documents case because he was an aging man with poor memory, Pelley&#8217;s interview — through a combination of softball questions and edits — obscured that from the public&#8217;s view.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think Scott Pelley’s got his own problems. He’s terrible,&#8221; Trump told Devine. &#8220;Look, Scott Pelley’s a stiff — and he’s afraid. And he’s part of this gang of crooked, stupid people that don’t care about our country. I watched that interview, that interview was a joke.&#8221;</p>
<p>Trump also criticized CNN anchor Anderson Cooper and ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos — the latter of whom he referred to as &#8220;a tough little cookie&#8221; who&#8217;d been forced to pay him $16 million — and said that they&#8217;d been equally guilty in helping to cover up Biden&#8217;s cognitive decline.</p>
