  1. She's a Traitor.
    Why did NBC continue to let her talk.

    Lock her up.

  2. good job Kristen, but that had to be tough. Yep, that's who teflon Don's choosing for his vp

  3. I really am not a fan of Kristen Welker. Interviewing skills are not great. She does not push back. The questions are not hard hitting. I need to see a hard hitting journalist, such as Rachel Maddow, Nicole Wallace, Joy Reid or Symone Sanders…

    This interview was terrible. I understand that Kirsten may not want to upset the Apple cart by pushing back, but as a journalist, she has to push back….It’s her job. If you let these people get away with saying things that are not true. There are people out there, that will believe.

  4. Wow! This is insane. This one lady's got Trump syndrome bad she's deep state

  5. I AGREE with Elise S. and President Trump…. Political Prisoners aka Hostess… NBC should be fact checked because: it's FALSE that 60 courts have rejected DJT's claims about election fraud. Nearly all those cases weren't even heard as far as Evidence goes

    "No Standing" is what the courts have said. Cowardly Judges didn't want to rule on the Evidence. Get IT RIGHT

  6. Very well spoken, Ms Elise Stefanik!

  7. The courts determine constitutionality, not Elise Stefanik. Sixty cases were brought by Trump, many in front of Trump-appointed judges. He lost every single one.

  8. Yes they are hostages. The courts refused to hear the case stating they have no standing. Pretty smart by the Democratic , this way we can not get discovery. discovered

  9. LATINOS 4 TRUMP 2024 ❤️🇵🇷❤️❤️🇺🇸 get all democrats out of the White House

  10. Stefanik eat your candy because you are BS and people are watching. Papagayo

  11. She's a dummy for the dummies

  12. People can protest on voting fraud, if there are fraud do not certify anything, Trump is our voice, We The People believe that Demons commit voting fraud. Biden is the worst administration EVERRR.

  13. I saw the two beautiful womens potential for a CAT fight. Didnt happen. Elise Stephanic earned my respect and admiration and got an "A"

  14. Kristin Welker: Nobody wants to hear you! STOP INTERRUPTING!
    ❤️🇺🇸❤️

  15. God bless Elise Stefanik! You done good!
    ❤️🇺🇸❤️

  16. Trump won and we know it!
    ❤️🇺🇸❤️

  17. Shame on Kristen Welker! You underestimate “We the People!” But, it looks like maybe you’re finally learning to STOP interrupting people. That’s a step in the right direction.
    ❤️🇺🇸❤️

  18. Personally find Elise to be an opportunist . What a poor legacy she leaves for women in our country . Shameful.

  19. She's wrong they never made it to court… no judge would hear it because they said it didn't have standing..

  20. Yes yes the Congress woman is absolutely right 😅

  21. You could actually tell that this Kristen is so far left. Again,this kind of people is comfortable twisting the truth and insisting on lies.

  22. If Trump picks her as his VP, the State of NY will support her since they are in shambles in that state and that would be 29 electoral votes for Trump. KTIM

  23. Elise Stefanik is great! She chewed up the Anchor "Meet the Press," and spit her out fantastically! – Author of The Chronicles of Assignments: PRINCIPALITIES – An Adventure of Spiritual Warfare from the PRINCIPALITIES against the Church, a novel by R. W. Touchton.

  24. Advancing Trump’s agenda is why she’s this week’s trash person.

  25. this is a woman that would make a great V P

  26. 😂😂😂😂 this lady is talking like Republican are angels, lol..

  27. Is there absolutely NO honesty in reports any more? The reporter tries to show the congress woman incorrect at every turn. The reporter will spout the narrative which she must know, by now, is incorrect. Fortunately Stefanik will have none of it.
