Preview:

While President Trump has often called into Fox News shows or appeared for interviews with Fox hosts, an interview on another network has been a rarity for Trump during his nearly two years in office. Trump’s interview with Leslie Stahl comes at a key time for his administration, as he works to help Republicans keep some control over Congress. Trump is also dealing with several key issues in the trade and foreign relations spheres, while also putting up a public relations fight over the perceived chaos inside his White House. It is Trump’s first appearance on 60 Minutes while in office.

The portions of the interview that have been released by CBS have already made news in the United States and abroad. Trump told Stahl that there will be “severe punishment” if Saudi Arabia is found to have been involved in the disappearance of Washington Post contributor Jamal Khashoggi. Saudi officials warned Sunday it would respond to any “threats,” but the country’s stock market plunged over Trump’s comments, CBS News reports.

Turkish officials have said they fear Khashoggi was killed and dismembered by Saudi agents after he entered his native country’s consulate in Istanbul on October 2. Saudi officials have called the allegations “baseless,” but have not provided any evidence that Khashoggi left the consulate.

“There’s something really terrible and disgusting about that, if that was the case, so we’re going to have to see,” Trump said during the 60 Minutes interview. “We’re going to get to the bottom of it and there will be severe punishment.” But Trump also said the U.S. “would be punishing ourselves” if an arms deal with the Saudis was canceled. He called the deal, a “tremendous order for our companies.”

During the interview, conducted at the White House on Thursday, Trump also talked about turnover in his cabinet. Nikki Haley announced last week she would be resigning as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. And Attorney General Jeff Sessions is potentially going to leave the administration after the midterms. The president hinted that other departures are likely, saying there are “some people” he is “not thrilled with.”

He suggested General James Mattis, the Secretary of Defense, could be on his way out. When asked by Stahl if Mattis would be leaving, Trump said, “Well, I don’t know. He hasn’t told me that.”

Trump added, “I have a very good relationship with him. I had lunch with him two days ago. I have a very good relationship with him. It could be that he is. I think he’s sort of a Democrat, if you want to know the truth. But General Mattis is a good guy. We get along very well. He may leave. I mean, at some point, everybody leaves. Everybody. People leave. That’s Washington.”

According to CBS, Trump called the reports of chaos in the White House “fake news,” telling Stahl, “I’m changing things around. And I’m entitled to. I have people now on standby that will be phenomenal. They’ll come into the administration, they’ll be phenomenal.” When asked by Stahl if other officials would leave the administration soon, he said, “Yeah, other people will go, sure.”
