When Republican leader Donald Trump took office in January, he brought a wave of high-profile appointments, including one of his favourites, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.The blonde-haired MAGA spearhead replaced Karine Jean-Pierre, who had served as press secretary under Joe Biden.
In the following weeks, Leavitt quickly became the public face of Trump to the media, presenting his policies and addressing critics on his behalf. Her rapid rise in the White House earned her hefty recognition, and she is now praised by Trump as one of his most effective and trusted picks in the GOP.
Lips and face that move like a machine gun
During a recent flight on Air Force One, Trump surprised reporters with an unexpected comment about his press secretary, Karoline Leavitt. While speaking to the media after leaving Israel, he suddenly shifted from foreign affairs to ask, “How’s Karoline doing? Is she doing good? Should Karoline be replaced?” When one reporter replied, “That’s up to you, sir,” Trump smiled and said, “It’ll never happen. That face… and those lips, they move like a machine gun, right?”It wasn’t the first time Trump made a comment like that. Earlier, during a television interview, he had said, “It’s that face.
It’s that brain. It’s those lips — the way they move, like a machine gun. She’s become a star.” He also called her “a great person” and praised her as “the best press secretary anyone has ever had.”Leavitt, who was on the same flight as Trump, later shared a photo of the president on social media, calling him “the hardest working POTUS ever.”
From assistant to youngest press secretary
At just 28, Karoline Leavitt has become one of the most visible figures in Trump’s second administration. She first worked for him as an assistant press secretary during his first term before leaving to run for Congress. After returning in 2024 to lead his campaign’s communications, she was appointed White House press secretary — the youngest ever to hold that position.
