President-elect Donald Trump slammed NBC News host Kristen Welker for her obvious left-wing bias, saying that she hurts herself “badly” by not being neutral.

Trump made the remarks at two points during his interview on “Meet The Press” that aired on Sunday.

The first moment came when Welker was peppering him with questions related to the Democrat-led January 6 committee in which she repeatedly interrupted him.

“It’s amazing. I wish you could be a, you know, you have such potential,” Trump said. “If you could be just non-biased. You hurt yourself so badly.”

Later in the interview, Trump was talking about how he has been treated by the press.

“…the press was obviously unfair to me, the press — no president has ever gotten treated by the press like I was. And yet I got more votes than any Republican candidate in history by far.”

“The press has to straighten itself out, because honestly it’s lost all credibility,” he continued. “Based on the press I should’ve gotten no votes, none. And yet I got the highest number ever.”

He then laid into Welker, “And the reason is because I’m able to go on a show even like yours, even though you’re very hostile, I’m able to go on a show like yours [Welker laughs] — no, you are.”

“It’s fair only in that you allowed me to say what I say,” he added. “But you know the answers, the questions are, you know, pretty nasty.”
