Karoline Leavitt says press still focused on 'sensationalism' over integrity

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt argued the media is still focused on getting a viral moment against the Trump administration, which she suggested is proof the press has stuck with its “failing ways.”

Leavitt’s comment comes after she got into a verbal feud during a recent White House press briefing, in which President Donald Trump’s use of tariffs was the subject of debate. Leavitt contended the reporter “clearly” failed to recognize Trump’s plans for tariffs, and how it aims to provide “larger tax cuts” for U.S. taxpayers.
