In a pre-recorded interview between President Donald Trump and NBC News’ Kristen Welker that aired on Sunday, a severe downpour of rain disrupted discussions multiple times in what one independent journalist characterized as a form of divine intervention.
Trump was mid-sentence discussing “tractors” and “digging mechanisms” when an audible downpour outside the building drew his attention away from the interview, held at Custer Farms in Wisconsin.
“Is that wind, or what?” Trump asked, abruptly pivoting from his remarks. “What is that?”
A voice off camera – presumably a staffer at NBC News – confirmed the sound was due to rain.
“This would be the first of multiple interruptions due to the weather,” Welker said in a narration recorded after the interview concluded. “Rain, hitting the metal roof, making it difficult for both of us to hear each other.”
Independent journalist Aaron Rupar, who’s been labeled by The Times as “the man who watches Trump all day, every day,” characterized the multiple disruptions as a potential message from beyond.
“The big guy upstairs wasn’t pleased with this interview,” Rupar wrote in a social media post on X to his more than 1.1 million followers.
After the disruption, Welker moved to get the interview back on track.
“So as we’re having this conversation we can hear a little bit of rain,” she said.
“No, a lot of rain!” Trump quipped as he began to smile.
