13. I've seen nothing but praise for Kristen Welker.

I feel the same way you do, I can't stand looking at or listening to that hideous cowardly fuck.

But that unflattering and unfair comment came from Aaron Rupar's Bluesky and Twitter post:

WOW -- Trump crashes out and cuts his interview with Welker short as she presses him on his lack of evidence for claiming elections are rigged

"You're either crooked or you're stupid. Let's call it quits. Because I've had enough. Thank you darling," he tells her."

"I traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview," she pleads.

Why he chose to present it that way, who knows.
