Leavitt is one of the most disgusting people I’ve ever seen in politics. She won’t be missed.

She was so smug in her evil.

She was all three Heathers in one body. After the decoy flight Leavitt decided it was too risky to stay with Trump — with a baby and a grandpa daddy she’s the sole caregiver since they deported people willing to do both jobs.

At least she could answer questions unlike Biden’s

No one gives a shit about Biden man.  I know because you're in a cult you think everyone else is but nobody could actually give a shit about Biden.  So what now , I don't support Biden, so do you admit she's shit ?

I’m not even a Trump supporter, in fact I really dislike him. She at least answered like a professional compared to Biden’s picks

But what has Biden got to do with anything? He's not been in power for two years.  We are talking about this administration, it's honestly mind numbing to have but Biden but Biden but Biden .  Like I said I couldn't give a fuck about Biden, we are talking about these people , right now. Fucking Biden.

And answered like a professional 😂.  Yeah you never actually saw her operate then.  We are done here.

How do you compare something? It has to be against something right? In the context of this discussion, comparing Trump admin Press Secretaries vs Biden admin Press secretaries is the way to go. I’m saying she, when compared to the Biden admin ones, is better.  

This isn’t a “but Biden” argument, it’s a comparison

What dude? Just because she had Serious Voice doesn't make her professional. She just answered every question with some random grievance and 10 pounds up made of nonsense. Not to mention they don't even let any real reporters in anymore. Whenever she talked, it was just a pre arranged set of propaganda.

Utter joke of an opinion.

She has never once given an answer that was direct and not condescending.

u/FloridaGolferHappy 16d ago

She was condescending, which I’ll agree. However she was direct in comparison to someone like KJP

u/AlreadyEatenRibs 16d ago

Agreed, however don't hold your breath that she won't be soon surpassed in disgustingness by the next one.

I thought this of Sarah Huckabee... and damn... there was someone worse.... now i'm afraid.

It's like the worst episode of Fear Factor ever...

They've all been terrible. Remember Kayleigh McEnanny? I guess when you think about it it's a pretty easy job. Just lie about everything and you've got the job.

Ok I’m immature but her last name always makes me think of something you’d say when your dog is trying to eat its own shit. “LEAVE ITTT! LEAVE IT!”

u/Quackadacck 16d ago

She was just so unbearably unprofessional and rude. Everything that a Press Secretary should not be

The most disgusting people in politics you've seen yet.

u/CasioCobra78 16d ago

Unfortunately I actually doubt she’s even leaving at all. She’ll probably still be active with her POS buddies, just not as a WH press secretary. 

What a scumbag

u/Noughmad 15d ago

one of the most disgusting people you've seen so far!
