During the White House Press Briefing on Thursday, a reporter asked Leavitt about Crockett's comments suggesting that if you support the president, you have mental issues, and defended former President Joe Biden's cognitive decline.
"I think it's incredibly derogatory to accuse nearly 80 million Americans of mental illness," the White House press secretary replied. "The last time I checked, Jasmine Crockett couldn't dream of winning such a majority of the public as President Trump did."
The White House press secretary's take-downs of Democrats and liberal media have been lethal. There are numerous examples of Leavitt taking apart reporters on issues like the anti-ICE riots and the cover-up of Biden's cognitive decline.
I agree but Trump would totally say the same about liberals lol https://t.co/L6CrTW6FcZ
