President-elect Donald Trump sits down with Kristen Welker for his first broadcast interview since winning the election.
President-elect Donald Trump’s wide-ranging interview with “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker that aired Sunday touched on just about every major policy he has proposed for his second term, including imposing new tariffs, tackling inflation and mass deportations. This was Trump’s first network interview since defeating Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election, giving people the clearest idea yet of how he plans to govern once he takes office.
