After winning the US presidential election, Donald Trump is busy improving his anti-women image. After the White House Chief of Staff, he has now chosen a woman for the US Ambassador to the UN.
Donald Trump has chosen Republican Representative Elise Stefanik to serve as the US Ambassador to the United Nations. Trump praised Stefanik, calling her a strong, tough and smart ‘America First’ fighter.
Half the population has full rights in Trump government!
America’s newly elected President Donald Trump has given big indications with the first two appointments of his second term. Trump chose Susie Wills, one of the key figures of his campaign, for the White House Chief of Staff. This is the first time that a woman will hold this powerful and influential position in the White House. On Monday, Trump chose Alice Stefanik to represent America in the United Nations. 40-year-old Stefanik is a representative of New York and is the chairman of the House Republican Conference. She is a strong ally of Donald Trump.
Who is Elise Stefanik?
Stefanik was born in New York and is the first member of her family to attend college. She received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Harvard University in 2006. During her time at Harvard, Stefanik won the Women’s Leadership Award and was vice president of the Harvard Institute of Politics.
During an interview, Stefanik said that she decided to enter politics after the 9/11 terrorist attack, she is very influenced by former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. After completing her education from Harvard, Stefanik has also worked for the Bush administration.
In 2014, Alice contested the House of Representatives election from New York’s 21st Congressional District. At the age of 30, she was elected to the US Congress. Alice was the youngest woman to reach this position. The special thing is that before her victory, this district of New York has traditionally been a voter of the Democratic Party.
Supported Trump in difficult times
Stefanik is among the few people who supported Trump strongly even in difficult times. She continued to support Trump even when he was impeached in 2019. According to a New York Times report, in May 2021, Stefanik described Trump as the strongest supporter of the Constitution compared to any US president.
Israel excited by Stefanik’s appointment
Elise Stefanik is known for supporting Israel. She had raised questions in the US Congress on students and universities protesting against Israel. She has been criticizing the role of the United Nations in the Israel-Hamas conflict, which is why Israel is very happy with the announcement of her appointment. Congratulating Stefanik, Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations Danny Danon wrote on the social media platform X, “Your unwavering moral clarity is needed today more than ever, I wish you success in standing firm for truth and justice.”
