President Donald Trump went into full meltdown mode Sunday morning on Truth Social where he raged at “Meet the Press” host Kristen Welker for saying his endorsements have earned “mixed results” during a local news segment.

In a seething social media screed, the president accused Welker of “purposeful inaccuracy” while threatening to report her to the Federal Communications Commission, the purportedly non-partisan agency which his administration has been openly weaponizing since he returned to the White House last year.

“Kristen Welker, the Unpopular ‘Hostess’ of the once great Meet the Press, now considered Meet the Fake Press, just stated that Donald Trump has ‘mixed results’ on his Endorsements of Candidates, when the recent WINS of Darline Graham and Mike Mazzei, stand at 100% for the U.S. Senate, and 98% for the U.S. House, recently and over the longterm,” Trump wrote.

“How can anyone be allowed to say this, working for freely given Public Airwaves?” he went on, dropping an unsourced infographic as evidence that his endorsements have a near-perfect success rate.

Trump then took aim at the press at large, writing, “Unfortunately, she is not the only one. The Radical Left News is going out of their way to harass, demean, and libel anything ‘TRUMP.’”

Humble as ever, he said many candidates “were not even given a shot” before he backed them, and claimed his support was the “strongest Endorsement in the History of Politics.”

Dubiously claiming the media “hardly covered” his high-profile push for political novice Darline Graham to take her late brother Sen. Lindsey Graham’s (R-S.C.) seat, Trump called the press a “Disgrace to our Nation” and urged FCC Chairman Brendan Carr and the rest of the commission to “take this Threat to our Country very seriously.”

During a recent appearance on NBC’s Washington, D.C., affiliate WRC, Welker said Trump’s endorsement had yielded “mixed results,” but the president will undoubtedly “loom large over these midterms.”

On Sunday’s episode of “Meet the Press,” Welker and a panel of politicos did discuss how Trump’s support could play out nationally given his historically low approval ratings, but they all seemed to agree he will be crucial to swaying Republican voters.

Though Trump’s Truth Social post had plenty of hyperbole, figures from election tracking site Ballotpedia show his numbers aren’t far off. Clocking a 96% success rate this primary season, 313 out of the 332 candidates Trump endorsed won their races. How that support will carry over to general elections is still yet to be seen.
