Summary

Correspondent Norah O’Donnell speaks with President Donald J. Trump at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Fla. for an exclusive interview with 60 MINUTES. Nearly one year into his second term, Mr. Trump discusses wide-ranging issues including U.S.-China relations, Venezuela, Israel, the government shutdown, immigration, the National Guard and more. With over 150 million copies sold in 40 languages, Guinness World Records ranks among the best-selling books in history. Inside its pages lie the fantastic, the absurd, and the astonishing record breakers. Correspondent Cecilia Vega takes us behind the scenes of these unbelievable-sounding spectacles to reveal a rigorous auditing system—one that proves that, as impossible as the feats may seem, every one is real.
