According to CNN, Trump's former communications director, Anthony Scaramucci, who has renounced the president, speaks about the twitter feud saying:

"Have any of the other presidents in recent history, modern history, gone after their private citizens whether they're celebrities or not celebrities? [For] the last two and a half years this guy has acted like a bully, crazy person against his fellow citizens."

Despite Trump's accusations against NBC, it has been noted that the special did acknowledge Trump's role in signing the First Step Act, a criminal justice reform measure put into law a year ago.
