The Stage Is Set

On CNN’s The American Pulse, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt faced off against Karine Jean-Pierre, former Biden press secretary. Hosted by Jake Tapper, the debate promised ideological sparks but erupted into a verbal brawl.

The 27-year-old Trump press secretary's wedding photos say it all about how it's going at the White House.

Leavitt’s Opening Salvo

Leavitt opened with a stinging jab: “I’m here to tell the truth, not dodge.” Defending Trump’s legacy, she cited deportations, $1 trillion in investments, and Panama Canal negotiations, contrasting them with Biden’s “open border chaos.” Jean-Pierre’s weak response about diversity fell flat.

Dominating the Narrative

Leavitt pressed her advantage, questioning Jean-Pierre’s claim of 10,000 daily border crossings as success. “Americans need safety and jobs, not empty promises,” she said, as Jean-Pierre struggled to respond, her hands trembling.

Exposing Weaknesses

Jean-Pierre’s pivot to fairness was met with Leavitt’s sharp rebuke: “You let criminals pour in. Trump fought for the people.” As Jean-Pierre faltered, Leavitt called out her lack of data, cementing her dominance.

The Final Blow

Jean-Pierre’s accusation of Trump’s unethical behavior was swiftly countered: “Trump brought jobs. You left inflation and an open border.” Leavitt’s closing line—“You’ve got nothing, Karine”—left Jean-Pierre speechless.
