Leftist social media users are eviscerating NBC's Hallie Jackson for her line of questioning for Kamala Harris.
Specifically, users are peeved that Jackson asked the vice president whether she would pardon former President Donald Trump.
Harris was quick to shut down the question from the reporter for the liberal news outlet.
'Would you consider – if you win and he's convicted – a pardon for former President Trump?' Jackson asked the 2024 contender.
'I'm not going to get into those hypotheticals,' she replied. 'I'm focused on the next 14 days.'
Kamala Harris joined NBC News host Hallie Jackson for an interview that aired Tuesday night – with just 14 days until the 2024 election
The anchor pressed Harris, claiming that there are some who claim a pardon might unify the country and 'help us move on.'
Harris shot back: 'Let me tell you what will help us move on – I get elected president of the United States.'
'Hallie Jackson where do you start and or get off even asking a question about pardons?!!! How about accountability first!' on user on X posted in ire of the question posed to the VP.
'Plus, do you actually think a pardon will 'heal' the nation?' they added.
Another wrote: 'OMG what a horrible interview conducted by Hallie Jackson. Seriously you call yourself a reporter. To ask about giving A CONVICTED Felon a pardon for the purposes of bringing this country together. SERIOUSLY WTF wrong with you. you're not a serious reporter.'
The user added a hashtag calling for NBC to fire Jackson.
Social media erupted with criticism over Hallie Jackson's questioning of Harris, claiming it was 'flawed' to ask if the VP would consider a pardon for former President Donald Trump
'Hallie Jackson asking Kamala Harris if she would pardon Trumpf (sic). At this point shouldn't these 'journalists' be wearing MAGA hats?' another posted to X – even though Jackson works for a left-leaning network.
Another said that Jackosn's interview questions were fundamentally 'flawed,' and specifically pointed to the pardon question and another on whether the country is ready for a black female president.
There are only 14 days until the 2024 presidential election.
Harris and Trump are going full court press on campaign events and interviews to try and persuade voters that they are going to save the country.
