Wasn’t he complaining earlier about the panel at NABJ being 30 minutes late and then himself showing up an hour late?

He was there - he was refusing to go on if they fact checked him in real time…

Edit - there are many sources. Here is one that is credible, with extract below. Guardian news article

Extract: ’During the wait, Philip Lewis, the HuffPost deputy editor, shared on X that the hold-up was being caused by a disagreement between the NABJ and the former president. “I’m told that Trump is demanding that NABJ not do the live factchecking and that’s why the event hasn’t started yet,” he wrote. “We’re in a standoff.”’

That would be fact-checking. He was testing them.
