With President Donald Trump’s walkout of Kristen Welker’s unhinged interrogation still fresh in our minds, Twitchy favorite MAZE reminds us that Sunday’s flare-up isn’t the first for the NBC ‘News’ star. Welker saves all her wig-outs for Republicans. Vice President JD Vance had a similar sit-down with Welker last year.
Here’s more. (READ)
Last year Kristen Welker interviewed VP Vance. It was relatively short and considerably less hostile than her other interviews with Vance, Rubio, and Trump.
That being said, listen to how EVERY question was worded. Accusations and attacks instead of questions.
Welker would never interview Biden, Kamala, or Obama like this, and this was probably the most friendly interview she has given anyone from the Trump Admin.
Check out Welker’s phrasing and realize she would never talk to fellow Democrats like this. (WATCH)

Why do they keep sitting down with this ghoul?

I'm not sure. I guess they feel it's the right thing to do.

It seems Trump possibly believes that doing these interviews is his best way to reach Americans still sadly plugged into the legacy media.

Commenters say Welker is a rabid ‘reporter.’

So accurate.

Just watch it with the sound off. Take note of the facial expressions and body language. That’s not an interview. It’s an ambush.

That's exactly how she looks every time she has to interview someone on the right.

Journalistic objectivity shines through her face.
It certainly reveals her real motivations. Her claim that she’s ’just a journalist’ rings hollow.
Posters point out her demands for evidence are selective. She didn’t provide evidence that Trump was seeking political ‘retribution’ against former National Security Adviser John Bolton before hinting that was the cause.
If she can’t find evidence of election fraud in California, where is her “evidence” of retribution in the prosecution of Bolton? Or is she imagining it? If she has no evidence, she should say so.

Look how wrong she was.

Bolton just pleaded guilty to stealing classified documents.
Trump was right again.
Think she will correct the record or apologize for the accusation? 🤪😂

No! She'll admit she was wrong when Leslie Stahl admits Hunter Biden's laptop was real and she was wrong.

So never.
