A press secretary is briefed on the lies she is to tell for the day from the White House and given answers to deflect from direct questions. That is why they never last more than a year or two because you are set up to look like an absolute fucktard no matter how smart you might be. There is no way to double talk your way out of something stupid the president just said the day before and was broadcast all over the place. That being said this current one is repeating the mistake of adding her own supposed intelligence which makes her look even dumber.. (tariffs are a tax cut on the American worker....wtf?)
Yes Karoline, we know that the Trump administration wants to fight law and order. Fortunately we have the world's most dimwitted press secretary available to explain it all to us. Whoops! Karoline Leavitt Confidently Declares Trump DOJ Focused on ‘Fighting Law And Order’ https://www.mediaite.com/news/whoop...-trump-doj-focused-on-fighting-law-and-order/
So Karoline Leavitt is proud of being the most fact checked Press Secretary for her lies in the shortest period of time. It's sad that the Trump administration and it's supporters are proud of repugnantly spreading disinformation. It's even sadder that Karoline is so dumb that she believes tariffs are a tax cut for the American people.
Karoline Leavitt: We're on the verge of a constitutional crisis and the economy is teetering on a cliff. But it's still a good time to share my wedding photos, right? Bonus: She's a mere 5 years away from being as old as her new husband was when she was born. The White House Press Secretary Thought This Would Be a Great Time to Post About Her Wedding And it’s a doozy. https://slate.com/life/2025/03/donald-trump-white-house-karoline-leavitt-husband-age.html
The "democratic activist judge" talking point is not working out very well. We thought AOC set the standard for stupid, then Karoline came along. Karoline Leavitt humiliated when reporter corrects her embarrassing blunder Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was corrected on live TV today after ranting about a judge's democratic ties, when a reporter informed her that the particular judge Republicans are angry at was actually appointed by George W. Bush https://www.irishstar.com/news/us-news/breaking-karoline-leavitt-humiliated-reporter-34894578
"I think critical thinking has largely died in the United States of America, and Karoline Leavitt is probably a perfect example of that." It has reached the point where comparisons to 1984 are apt. The MAGA crowd are nothing more than sheep chowing down the Trump government's latest message even when actual evidence they see demonstrates that it is a lie. 'Critical thinking has died' — and 'Karoline Leavitt is an example': Ex-GOP official https://www.rawstory.com/karoline-leavitt-2671363684/ A former Republican lawmaker mocked President Donald Trump's press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, during a conversation with political and legal analysts on MSNBC Wednesday. Host Nicolle Wallace showed a clip of Leavitt attacking Judge James Boasberg, who is presiding over the case involving the flights that deported people the Trump administration alleged were gang members. Over the weekend, Boasberg told Trump's Justice Department lawyers that the flights must be paused or turned around. There has been a further question about whether the administration made a calculated decision to ignore the judge, according to The Associated Press. That led to further questions by the judge and an official request for information on the timeline of the flights and actions. The White House responded by going on the attack against the judge, including a press briefing in which Leavitt claimed he was a liberal Democrat and appointed by President Barack Obama. Wallace disagreed, pointing out that Boasberg was appointed by her former boss, George W. Bush, and only elevated by Obama. The judge has made several conservative decisions, including requiring the State Department to release some of Hillary Clinton's emails. Leavitt responded to being fact-checked by saying, "67% of injunctions in this century have come against which president: Donald J. Trump." Wallace pointed out that she was not sure where Leavitt got those figures. "But he is also the only convicted felon who has ever been elected president." Former Rep. David Jolly (R-FL) quipped, "I think critical thinking has largely died in the United States of America, and Karoline Leavitt is probably a perfect example of that." Jolly asked why it would matter if Boasberg were an "activist judge," as conservatives allege. "Karoline's an activist as well. Most of the people in the Trump administration are activists as well. Does that make their performance of their constitutional duties less solemn, less sober, less responsible? No, of course not." He also addressed the idea that Trump has experienced so many injunctions. "That's probably because he's the one president who has acted the most outside the bounds of his executive authority," said Jolly. "The death of critical thinking is real. This White House is a perfect example of it." See the clip below or at the link here.
At 26 she is in a job that requires more maturity, certainly to try and sane-wash at the level needed with Trump. Josh Earnest under Obama was for my money the best in recent times. He was witty, came across well and was not combative with the press, making it look effortless is important. "Karoline Leavitt's appointment as White House Press Secretary at age 27 makes her the youngest individual to hold the position. Historically, the average age of individuals assuming this role has been higher. Notable examples include: Ron Ziegler: Appointed at age 29 during the Nixon administration, he was previously the youngest to serve in this capacity. Dee Dee Myers: Assumed the role at age 31 under President Bill Clinton, becoming the first woman to serve as White House Press Secretary. Jen Psaki: Became Press Secretary at age 42 during the Biden administration. While specific data on the average starting age of White House Press Secretaries is limited, these examples suggest that individuals have typically been in their late 30s to early 40s upon assuming the role. Leavitt's appointment at 27 is a notable deviation from this trend. "
What about you clowns running Kamala and Joe Biden at the top of your ticket? You think that advanced critical thinking in this country? Is that what you think white boy?
