Donald Trump had critics reaching for the barf bags with his latest praise of White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt.The president asked reporters returning from the Middle East with him on board Air Force One on Monday how they thought Leavitt was performing in her role.“How’s Karoline doing? She doing good? Should Karoline be replaced?” Trump asked.“That’s up to you, sir,” one reporter replied.“It’ll never happen,” said Trump.Then, he added: “That face and those lips, they move like a machine gun, right?”Trump made a similar comment in August while calling Leavitt “a star.”“It’s that face. It’s that brain. It’s those lips, the way they move. They move like she’s a machine gun,” he said, hailing her as a “great person” and “amazing.”And people this time around responded just like then, with many calling the comment “gross.”🤢🤢🤢— Say What? “repetition-induced truth effect” (@2speakupstandup) October 14, 2025That's so gross. In so many ways.— KellySeven 🦘🍁 (@KellySeven3) October 14, 2025Close
