President Trump sat down for a one-on-one interview with Fox News' Chris Wallace that aired Sunday morning, and the commander-in-chief was on the defensive throughout, calling Wallace "fake news" after the two debated the U.S. coronavirus mortality rate. The discussion touched on numerous subjects, and Trump and Wallace pushed back against each other's statements.
At one point, Trump repeated his argument that military bases honoring Confederate soldiers shouldn't be renamed, and when Wallace pointed out that the military itself is in favor of the move, Trump replied that he "doesn't care what the military says."
