This is a very interesting plot twist.
President Trump just announced that he has agreed to sit down for an interview with none other than The Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg.
Golberg is no fan of President Trump, to put it lightly.
In fact, he is the very person responsible for numerous hoaxes against the president — including, most recently, ‘Signalgate’ in which Goldberg claimed to have been mistakenly added to a group chat with top Trump officials where ‘war plans’ were discussed.
President Trump says he agreed to the interview out of “curiosity, and as a competition with myself, just to see if it’s possible for The Atlantic to be ‘truthful.’”
I guess we will find out very soon, since the interview happened today, just hours after President Trump posted about it on Truth Social.

Here’s President Trump’s full Truth Social post:
Later today I will be meeting with, of all people, Jeffrey Goldberg, the Editor of The Atlantic, and the person responsible for many fictional stories about me, including the made-up HOAX on “Suckers and Losers” and, SignalGate, something he was somewhat more “successful” with. Jeffrey is bringing with him Michael Scherer and Ashley Parker, not exactly pro-Trump writers, either, to put it mildly! The story they are writing, they have told my representatives, will be entitled, “The Most Consequential President of this Century.” I am doing this interview out of curiosity, and as a competition with myself, just to see if it’s possible for The Atlantic to be “truthful.” Are they capable of writing a fair story on “TRUMP”? The way I look at it, what can be so bad – I WON!
Steven Crowder dove deep into exactly what kind of a ‘reporter’ Jeffrey Goldberg is:
Trump is meeting with Jeffrey Goldberg today, and we just wanted remind everyone that Goldberg is one huge steaming piece of sh*t.
Goldberg’s legacy includes, but is not limited to:
– Lying about Saddam Hussein’s ties to Al Qaeda
– Lying about Iraq’s WMD program
– Lying about… https://t.co/h75NXVbDbC pic.twitter.com/KVZfo92iBR— Steven Crowder (@scrowder) April 24, 2025
Axios reported on the details:
President Trump said Thursday that he will meet with The Atlantic’s editor in chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, for an interview following the Signal chat scandal.
Why it matters: Goldberg prompted scrutiny of the Trump administration’s ability to handle sensitive information after he revealed that he was mistakenly added to the group chat with top administration officials.
“I am doing this interview out of curiosity, and as a competition with myself, just to see if it’s possible for The Atlantic to be ‘truthful,’” Trump said in a Truth Social post. The Atlantic declined to comment. Zoom in: Atlantic staff writers Michael Scherer and Ashley Parker will also join the Thursday interview, which is for a piece that will be headlined “The most consequential president of this century,” Trump said.
“The way I look at it, what can be so bad,” he wrote, “I WON!”
ABC News added:
For years, President Donald Trump has blasted politically damaging reporting by The Atlantic Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg as fake, made-up.
His most recent criticism has been over Goldberg’s bombshell story about a Signal chat he was accidentally invited to, one that included top members of Trump’s national security team, conversing about an impending military attack on Houthi terrorists in Yemen.
Now, in a surprise twist, Trump said he would speak face-to-face with Goldberg on Thursday after claiming on Truth Social that Goldberg, along with The Atlantic writers Michael Scherer and Ashley Parker, would sit down with him for an interview.
“The story they are writing, they have told my representatives, will be entitled, “The Most Consequential President of this Century,” he said.
Goldberg and The Atlantic have not commented about Trump’s post or the alleged meeting as of Thursday afternoon.
Although the president claimed Goldberg was “responsible for many fictional stories about me,” he said he is looking forward to the meeting.
“I am doing this interview out of curiosity, and as a competition with myself, just to see if it’s possible for The Atlantic to be ‘truthful,’” Trump posted. “Are they capable of writing a fair story on ‘TRUMP’? The way I look at it, what can be so bad.”
