Karoline Leavitt's 'My Own Two Eyes' Claim About Trump Has People Doubting Her Vision

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt made a new claim about President Donald Trump on Monday that many critics find a little hard to swallow. “I just want to say to your audience: There’s not a more hardworking president than Donald J. Trump,” she said during a Fox News interview. “I witness it with my own two eyes every day. That man is working around the clock. He hardly ever sleeps.”Given the president’s propensity to fire off messages on social media in the middle of the night, the sleep claim rings true. But given the number of hours he spends consuming cable news ― and complaining about it on social media ― and how often he golfs, many of his critics cast doubt on the rest of her statement. Trump has spent nearly 40 of his first 175 days in office playing golf. The bill for his golf trips ― picked up by taxpayers ― was $26 million by March 29, according to a HuffPost analysis, some of which goes into his own pocket as he golfs at his own resorts. Those payments also come as the Trump administration forces cutbacks throughout the government and reduces essential services to American citizens.During Trump’s first term, his days were known for being unstructured, with as much as nine hours a day of “executive time,” which Politico reported at the time was spent “tweeting, phoning friends and watching television.”Given those habits, many on X didn’t believe Leavitt’s latest claim about the president: Her eyesight needs checking https://t.co/9XdhQa6Yy0— Myra Lowe 🐾🐈🐾🐈⬛💙 (@Lowecat) July 15, 2025So hardworking https://t.co/BcR3Ntn9thpic.twitter.com/vJ0FXNxhWM— Lookout (@MikeNordon) July 15, 2025Hardworking? This is Karoline Leavitt's biggest lie yet. Donald Trump is out golfing every weekend. During the week, he spends half the time doing a TV show from the Oval Office signing Executive Orders rather than the serious work of talking to Congress about legislation.— Laurence (Larry) Boorstein (@LarryBoorstein) July 15, 2025Golfing is hard work?— Richard Williams (@BigWalrus20) July 15, 2025He has never "worked" a day in his life. He walks around pontificating about shit he doesn't understand. That's not work.— Machine Pun Kelly 🇺🇦 (@KellyScaletta) July 15, 2025And nobody spews more lies with their own two lips than Karoline Leavitt — and we witness it every single day.— Thomas St James (@Thomasstjames3) July 15, 2025OMG Yes! I mean, can you imagine how difficult it is watching multiple TV Channels for the first 5 hours of the morning! Holy shit. That man is a hard worker! And leavitt watches him do it every day! https://t.co/R567Ge05as— 19Lyds (@19Lyds) July 15, 2025
