Trump Was Asked About His Press Secretary’s Performance. His Answer Took A Weird Turn.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and President Donald Trump.President Donald Trump gave his press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, some rather specific compliments during a Friday interview with NewsMax’s Rob Finnerty.When asked his opinion on her performance in his administration during the exchange, Trump commented on Leavitt’s face and lips. “She’s become a star,” he said. “It’s that face. It’s that brain. It’s those lips, the way they move. They move like she’s a machine gun.”After realizing Leavitt was in the room, Trump doubled down, “She’s a star.” He continued to say Leavitt is a “great person,” and added, “I don’t think anybody has ever had a better press secretary than Karoline. She’s been amazing.”Leavitt, who started working for the Trump administration in 2019 as a White House intern and correspondence office staffer, made history in January 2025 when she became the youngest press secretary ever at just 27 years old. That same day, during a White House press conference on peace treaties, Leavitt also gushed over her boss, stating, “It’s well past time that President Trump was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.”“President Trump has brokered on average about one peace deal or ceasefire per month during his six months in office,” she said. She pointed to Trump’s involvement in defusing diplomatic standoffs across several global hotspots, including efforts between Thailand and Cambodia, Israel and Iran, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, India and Pakistan, Serbia and Kosovo, and Egypt and Ethiopia.Related...Brian Cox Accuses 'Idiot' Donald Trump Of 'Talking B*****ks' Over Scottish IndependenceTrump's Top Team Rages Over Allies' 'Clumsy' Plan To Recognise Palestinian StatehoodDonald Trump Will Bring Back A Test For Schoolchildren Not Used Since Obama Years
