Trump & co's Insolence Towards Journalists is Increasing, Latest is Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt !
When the reporter texted White House Press Secretary who chose the location for the meeting, Leavitt replied, "Your mom did." |
Washington DC: Like the US President, his team is equally adept at misbehaving with the media. As soon as a difficult or disagreeable question is posed, they resort to indecency. This time, President Donald Trump's favorite secretary, Karoline Leavitt, crossed all limits of linguistic decorum.
During a White House press conference, Leavitt made a objectionable remark about a journalist's mother in response to a question. HuffPost journalist S.V. Dayton asked Caroline Leavitt about the Trump-Putin meeting, to which Levitt insulted the journalist and, disregarding all decorum, used abusive language against him.
Journalist S.V. Dayton had sent Caroline Leavitt a message regarding the location of the Trump-Putin meeting, asking who had chosen the location. In response, White House Press Secretary Leavitt wrote, "Your mother..." Leavitt herself shared a screenshot of this conversation on X, accusing the journalist of being biased against President Trump.
Congratulations to HuffPost for eliciting the most legendary response from the White House.

Hilarious responses. pic.twitter.com/jiRII8jGUz
Leavitt called journalist S.V. Dayton biased, saying that Dayton comes from a left-wing lobby and deliberately attacks Donald Trump and keeps sending her Democratic Party messages. Leavitt further said, "Activists who call themselves journalists are actually harming journalism."
The incident of Karoline Leavitt's rudeness towards the journalist has gone viral on social media. People are writing that the way Leavitt dragged her mother into the conversation while responding to the journalist is not smartness, but stupidity.
Rudeness is nothing new in the Trump administration. President Trump himself has invited global leaders and publicly insulted them several times. Whenever the media asks Trump or his team any questions, journalists are often insulted in response. Karoline Leavitt is one such rude employee.
Karoline Leavitt is President Trump's favorite secretary. Recently, Donald Trump publicly praised Leavitt, calling her a very smart, confident, and tough spokesperson who brilliantly answers even the media's toughest questions. Previously, Caroline Leavitt was part of Trump's 2024 election team and is now the youngest White House press secretary. Her job is to interact with journalists and provide information on government policies.
