Critics Give Big Old Eye Roll To Trump Spokesperson's 'Hostile' Debate Prep Claim
HuffPost
Karoline Leavitt received a very blunt reminder following her spin to Fox News' Jesse Watters.
Donald Trump campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt raised eyebrows with a claim about how the former president is getting ready for Thursday’s first 2024 presidential debate against President Joe Biden.
Leavitt breathlessly listed the presumptive GOP presidential nominee’s “very busy schedule” from recent days to Fox News’ Jesse Watters. She boasted about Trump’s campaign events, speeches and meetings with policy advisers.
But Leavitt’s assertion that Trump is “continuing to engage in hostile media interviews with the press over the next couple of days as he always does” prompted questions among people on social media.
Critics asked exactly what “hostile” interviews Trump had been involved in and noted how, also on Thursday night, he was actually talking to his former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski on Newsmax and how he rarely accepts chats with networks whose coverage can be critical of him.
