President Donald Trump came to Rep. Elise Stefanik’s (R-N.Y.) defense, calling her a “new Republican star,” after she was heavily criticized for her performance during former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch’s impeachment inquiry hearing.
“A new Republican Star is born. Great going @EliseStefanik!” Trump wrote in a Twitter post that was accompanied by a clip of Stefanik questioning Yovanovitch on Friday.
