One of the most recognizable names in the MAGA world received a cold welcome during a renaming ceremony in Plattsburgh on Monday, according to reports.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), who was Trump's initial pick for the UN ambassador job, attended a ceremony to rename the Clinton County Government Center after the late John Zurlo, who was a county clerk for more than 50 years. Attendees booed and jeered Stefanik at the event, reported local news station NBC 5.

"You sold us out!" the outlet reported some crowd members screaming at Stefanik.

Public verbal ambushing of creepy Republicans is a good trend. Hope it continues.
