The AP reporter contradicted Karoline Leavitt’s (entirely incorrect) explanation of what a tariff is and who gets hurt by them and Karoline gets snarly and complains that the AP is trying to test her knowledge of economics. She is so embarrassingly ignorant but I guess she got where she is today but never admitting mistakes ever. Just like trump.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-press-secretary-loses-asked-194536192.html The Trump administration is still trying to convince Americans that tariffs will save the economy, even as the stock market hemorrhages cash. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt got into a heated back-and-forth with an Associated Press reporter on Tuesday, in which she revealed that she really doesn’t understand how tariffs affect consumers—or at least is totally willing to lie about it. |
She's a more polished and confident Sarah Huckabee Sanders. To this day when anybody in my family is asked a question we'd rather not answer we say "Uh...look...I haven't had that conversation with the president." |
She isn't there to know what anything is. She is there to look pretty, flex her Christianity and spout the party line. |
In retrospect, I like Sanders a whole lot more. Leavitt is overly combative, dumb as a rock, and simply repeats disinformation talking points. She's the worst of what that role is supposed to be. |
And keep calm under pressure and sound like she knows what she's talking about even when she's wrong. I'm sure MAGA loves her. |
All the best liars. |
+1 |
Just like her equally dumb parents who didn’t know how to spell Caroline. |
Sarah Huckabee Sanders was much smarter than Karoline Leavitt, which made things much more awkward for her (Sanders). Leavitt is super confident and not sharp enough to notice her own weaknesses. |
Fixed (Because Trump doesn't seem to understand tariffs either...) |
Well, the K is probably there for a reason. |
What's the DEI equivalent for hiring someone for their looks? |
I agree with this. SHS at least seemed to choke on the BS a little. Unlike Leavitt. |
She’s such a smug idiot, useful to the far right. That tacky, giant crucifix is going to explode into flames one day, probably after her millionth lie next month.
I almost feel sorry for her. But then I see her sour face and her little pink mouth that looks like a cat’s anus and her quickly expanding waistline, and I stop. |
I envy her confidence. But she is what the pilot saying if “all thrust, no vector” was made for. Clueless, unwarranted confidence. |
