Trump Offers Elise Stefanik UN Ambassador Role

President-elect Donald Trump has reportedly offered Republican Representative Elise Stefanik the position of U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. Stefanik, a prominent supporter of Trump and chair of the House Republican Conference, has not yet confirmed the offer but has expressed her willingness to serve in his administration. If appointed, her departure would prompt a special election in New York's 21st District, which she has held since 2015. Stefanik has gained recognition for her vocal support of Trump, including during his first impeachment trial and for her recent critiques of university responses to antisemitism. The move aligns with Trump's broader strategy of surrounding himself with loyal allies as he prepares to take office. Reports indicate that Trump is also considering other candidates for key administration roles.
