Trump appeared rambling and testy at times, and at one point, as he and Stahl sparred over his views on the media, the president ended the argument by saying: “In the meantime, I’m president — and you’re not.” 
 
 Here are some highlights on a range of subjects covered in the interview: 
 
 Climate change: While Trump said he doesn’t think climate change is a hoax, he also doesn’t necessarily think it’s man-made. President Donald Trump: I think something's happening. Something's changing and it'll change back again," he said. I don't think it's a hoax, I think there's probably a difference. But I don't know that it's manmade. I will say this. I will say this: I don't want to give trillions and trillions of dollars. I don't want to lose millions and millions of jobs." Lesley Stahl: You know, I-- I was thinking what if he said, "No, I've seen the hurricane situations, I've changed my mind. In an interview with CBS' "60 Minutes" that aired Sunday night, Trump said he doesn't want to put the U.S. at a disadvantage in responding to climate change. "I'm not denying climate change," he said in the interview. Trump, who is scheduled on Monday to visit areas of Georgia and Florida damaged by Hurricane Michael, also expressed doubt over scientists' findings linking the changing climate to more powerful hurricanes. People say that in the-- 
 
 Lesley Stahl: Yeah, but what about the scientists who say it's worse than ever? President Donald Trump: You'd have to show me the scientists because they have a very big political agenda, Lesley. President Trump vows "severe punishment" if Saudi Arabia is behind disappearance of Jamal Khashoggi 
 
 Lesley Stahl: Jamal Khashoggi, the journalist-- 
 
 President Donald Trump: Yes. Yes.” 
 
 But he stopped short of saying the U.S. may curtail arms shipments to Saudi Arabia: “I tell you what I don’t wanna do. “It’s being looked at very, very strongly,” Trump said. “And we would be very upset and angry if that were the case. As of this moment, they deny it. And den-- deny it vehemently. Boeing, Lockheed, Raytheon, all these com-- I don't wanna hurt jobs. I don't wanna lose an order like that. There are other ways of — punishing, to use a word that’s a pretty harsh word, but it’s true.”

 North Korea: Trump said he trusts dictator Kim Jong Un, though he admitted his description that he “fell in love with” Kim was just a figure of speech. But I will tell you, I have no intention of doing that.” pic.twitter.com/TbSdVITZ3x — 60 Minutes (@60Minutes) October 14, 2018 
 
 Brett Kavanaugh: Trump took credit for Kavanaugh’s confirmation by the Senate, saying his speech in Mississippi in which he mocked accuser Christine Blasey Ford made the difference. When asked if it’s true that Mattis told him NATO’s function is to avoid World War III, Trump said “that’s not true. I had a meeting with him. I get along with him really well. I have a good chemistry with him.” 
 
 Lesley Stahl on Kim Jong Un: "He presides over a cruel kingdom of repression, gulags, starvation…slave labor, public executions. This is a guy you love?" President Trump: "I know all these things… I get along with him, okay? Despite Kim’s record of human rights abuses, the two get along: “Let it be whatever it is. I have a good energy with him. … Let it be whatever it is to get the job done.” pic.twitter.com/J6Gbuns2t6 — 60 Minutes (@60Minutes) October 14, 2018 
 
 China: On the subject of trade, Trump said he’s not trying to crush China’s economy, just push them to the negotiating table. “I want them to negotiate a fair deal with us,” he said. “I want them to open their markets like our markets are open.” But he warned that while he also has “great chemistry” with Chinese President Xi Jinping, “I don’t know that that’s necessarily going to continue.” 
 
 Europe: Trump claimed the EU treats the U.S. with hostility and has been taking advantage of the U.S. for years. “Nobody treats us much worse than the European Union,” he said.  President Donald Trump predicted climate change would fix itself, said he knows more about NATO that Defense Secretary Jim Mattis and claimed the European Union was formed to take advantage of the U.S. in a wide-ranging interview aired Sunday on “60 Minutes.” 
 
 Speaking to CBS News’ CBS, +1.06% Lesley Stahl for the first time since taking office, Trump again boasted that “no administration in the history of our country” has done as much in its first two years. President Donald Trump: Frankly, I like General Mattis. I think I know more about it than he does. And I know more about it from the standpoint of fairness, that I can tell you,” as he again claimed NATO allies do not pay their fair share.

 Russia: Trump claimed he’s been very tough with Russian President Vladimir Putin, even though he has yet to say anything harsh about Putin in public: “I think I’m very tough with him personally. The two of us. It was a very tough meeting and it was a very good meeting.” 
 
 While admitting it’s likely that Putin is involved with assassinations, and that Russia meddled in the 2016 elections, Trump claimed without evidence that China and “other countries” did as well. “I think China meddled also,” he said, “And I think, frankly, China is a bigger problem.” 
 
 The Mueller probe: Trump refused to pledge not to shut down the Mueller investigation into Russian election interference, and again denied there was collusion. President Donald Trump: Do you really think I'd call Russia to help me with an election? Give me a break. They wouldn't be able to help me at all. Call Russia. It’s so ridiculous,” he said. As far as the climate "changing back," temperature records kept by NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration show that the world hasn't had a cooler-than-average year since 1976 or a cooler-than-normal month since the end of 1985. "So I always used to say the toughest people are Manhattan real estate guys and blah, blah," he said. "Now I say they're babies." "This is the most deceptive, vicious world. It is vicious, it's full of lies, deceit and deception," he said. "You make a deal with somebody and it's like making a deal with — that table." On a different topic, Trump told "60 Minutes" that he's been surprised by Washington being a tough, deceptive and divisive place, though some accuse the real estate mogul elected president of those same tactics. He later said he was joking about the Chinese connection, but in years since has continued to call global warming a hoax. President Donald Trump: Had I not made that speech, we would not have won. I was just saying she didn’t seem to know anything,” he said. President Donald Trump: What I said the person that we're talking about didn't know the year, the time, the place. When pressed by Stahl over whether he believed Ford, Trump said: “I’m not gonna get into it because we won. It doesn't matter. President Donald Trump crosses the South Lawn on his return to the White House, Saturday Oct. 13, 2018, in Washington, after a trip to Kentucky. Citing concerns about the pact's economic impact, Trump said in 2017 that the U.S. will leave the Paris climate accord. “I don’t trust everybody in the White House, I’ll be honest with you,” he said. “It’s a tough business. Washington D.C. is a vicious, vicious place. The attacks, the-- the bad mouthing, the speaking behind your back. --but-- you know, and in my way, I feel very comfortable here.
– President Trump apparently no longer believes that climate change is a "hoax"—but he does believe it will somehow change back, and he doesn't want to spend too much money dealing with it, despite dire warnings from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. "I think something's happening. Something's changing and it'll change back again," Trump said in a 60 Minutes interview that was broadcast Sunday night. "I don't think it's a hoax. I think there's probably a difference. But I don't know that it's manmade. I will say this: I don't want to give trillions and trillions of dollars. I don't want to lose millions and millions of jobs." He added that he's not "denying climate change," but it "could very well go back ... millions of years," the AP reports. When interviewer Leslie Stahl asked Trump about climate change creating more powerful hurricanes, the president, who will visit hurricane-hit parts of Florida and Georgia on Monday, seemed doubtful. "You'd have to show me the scientists because they have a very big political agenda," he said when Stahl told him scientists had determined that hurricanes were worse than ever. More from the interview: Putin "probably" behind assassinations. Trump said Russian leader Vladimir Putin was "probably" behind the assassination of diplomats, but it didn't seem like he was losing sleep over it, the Washington Post reports. "It's not in our country," he said. Trump also told Stahl that Russia meddled in the 2016 election, but said China had done the same. "I think, frankly, China is a bigger problem," he said. "We won" on Christine Blasey Ford. Trump said the speech in which he mocked Ford help secure Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation to the Supreme Court, MarketWatch reports. Asked whether he believed Ford's accusations, Trump said: "I'm not going to get into it because we won. It doesn't matter. We won." Kim Jong Un is what he is. Asked about his professed "love" of North Korean dictator Kim despite human rights abuses including the use of gulags and slave labor, Trump said: "I get along with him, OK?" He added: "Let it be whatever it is. I get along with him really well. I have a good energy with him." "Nobody treats us worse." Trump was harder on the European Union, saying nobody treats the US worse than the trading bloc. "The European Union was formed in order to take advantage of us on trade, and that’s what they’ve done," he said. No chaos here. Trump rejected suggestions that there was chaos inside his administration, but admitted that figures including Defense Secretary Jim Mattis could soon be leaving, the Post reports. "I think he’s sort of a Democrat, if you want to know the truth," Trump said. "But General Mattis is a good guy. We get along very well. He may leave. I mean, at some point, everybody leaves. Everybody."
