From trolling the media to gaslighting the public, it's no surprise Donald Trump chose 27-year-old Karoline Leavitt as his new press secretary. In this episode, Amanda unpacks Leavitt's combative style with reporters, including scolding the press and calling their questions "stupid." She also looks into her curious rise from White House intern to MAGA mouthpiece and examine why the tactics may backfire. There's also the lie that Leavitt is an empowering role model and her questionable style. Communications specialist Kate Bernyk is this episode's guest.
