TL;DR

Former President Donald Trump abruptly ended an interview with NBC News after harsh exchanges with host Kristen Welker, who pressed him on his unsubstantiated allegations that the 2020 election was stolen. Trump told Welker, "Let's finish because I'm tired. Thank you, dear. Enjoy," and left despite her pleas to continue, citing her travel to Wisconsin for the interview. A monitored channel from Israeli news outlets confirms the account.
