“We will see if this is a legal and valid election,” Stefanik, a member of House GOP leadership and a Donald Trump ally, said in an interview with “Meet the Press.”

Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., on Sunday wouldn’t commit to certifying the 2024 election results during an interview on NBC News’ “Meet the Press.”

While interviewing Stefanik, who serves in House Republican leadership, host Kristen Welker asked, “Would you vote to certify, and will you vote to certify, the results of the 2024 election no matter what they show?”

Stefanik, who has boosted former President Donald Trump’s baseless claims of widespread fraud in the 2020 election, said that she did not vote to certify the 2020 results in the state of Pennsylvania and several other states because there were “unconstitutional acts circumventing the state legislature and unilaterally changing election law.”

      Stop blaming the media.

      They reported the pussy grabber tape and reported when Donnie said that he ‘liked soldiers who didn’t get captured.’

      People voted for him because he said the shit they wanted to hear, and they’ll ignore any news that tells them what they don’t believe.

        The media also spent a lot of time letting Trump just say whatever he wanted without any criticism. Which I think was their point. Maybe if you’re going to report on this stuff, also push back on it.

          There’s plenty of media pushing back on him. It’s basically a huge maga-cultist complaint that they aren’t very nice to Trump, because they point out and dissect what he has said and criticize it. They see the lopsided amount of times his BS is being called out as evidence that the media is biased against him, not that he spews a lopsided amount of BS.

        Stop blaming the media? The fuck you talking about? They made him and supported him in every way!

        Fuck no we won’t stop blaming the media, they know exactly what they did. You hear any actual apologies, see any actual changes for the better? No. No you don’t.

        Stop blaming the media. FFS.
