Another strong, intelligent female around Trump? I'm shocked. Shocked I say.

[jamesgroce]

Contrast her with the DEI hire we see on TV for the Biden Administration. Just wow!

[barryj]

These media types are so interested in questioning if "these are the best people" but never made a peep about any of Joe's weirdos. All it should take to get these pundits to be quiet is and affirmative answer to "are they better than the people they're replacing?"

[philipneri]

I second the nomination of Karoline Leavitte

i miss kayleigh mcenany as press secretary. she should have been picked first she was straight to the point

He said in his 45th presidency he didn’t realize he had to hand pick each position and it would take over a year. He said for the 47th presidency he’s ready, knows the ropes and wants to hit the ground running because he doesn’t have much time. 4 years is nothing. He’s got a lot of work ahead of him.

That's great, she's great!! I was hoping for Kayleigh to come back but Carolyn is terrific!!

[charliedillon]

Trump should just have a handful of rotating press secretaries; a collection of savages he could just have pop in unannounced to handle the press corps. Think of it like they have a bullpen of pitchers in baseball.

GREAT pick! She really earned it! Good luck, Karoline!

[margaritallove]

EXCELLENT! 🎈 PRAISE THE LORD! FOREVER 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈

[nancyh]

Yes Jefferies, they are the best and I'm extremely proud of Trump's choices!!!! ❤❤❤❤ Full steam ahead!

[garthpilkey]

The Dems believed Harris was their best, so their criticism of Trump's choices should be ignored.

[OMG_]

She's too sweet, nice. She will be eaten alive by the hostile press. I was hoping for someone with attitude. Someone like Candace.

[mayasilliman]

What about Kari Lake? Is Trump going to give her a position? She lost the Senate seat but she's a great supporter of his and a great public speaker for the rights of all Americans.

[wsoxfan]

Now kick the MSM out and allow alternative media in the press room.

[timwashburn]

I still think Tyrus from Fox News would make a great press secretary.

[narcisocalica]

Karoline Leavitt is the a opposite of KJP. This young lady is a lot smarter and an more intelligent than KJP.

[oscarwindham]

A normal person as our nation's Press Secretary, what a relief.

[JP-sfer]

Love to see a younger generation taking in the reigns from both parties.

[paddlefoot]

She's going to be great, and she won't take any BS from WH Press Corp
