Karoline Leavitt, the 27-year-old White House Press Secretary, has been criticized for her behavior, which includes dishing out lies and insults.
Recently, when a Huffington Post reporter asked Leavitt about the choice of Budapest as the site for a meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, she responded with a childish remark:
Your mom did.This response was echoed by White House Communications Director Steven Cheung, who also said
Your mom.
Leavitt's behavior is seen as a reflection of her boss, President Trump, who is known for his own trail of lies. As the first line of defense for the President, Leavitt has routinely made gaffes and spun lies in her press conferences.
