🚨 SMACKDOWN ALERT: AP Reporter Destroys Karoline Leavitt on Basic Economics—She Immediately Melts Down AP REPORTER: “Have you ever PAID a tariff? Because I HAVE. They don’t get charged on foreign companies, they get charged on the importers.” LEAVITT: “I think it is insulting you are trying to test... my knowledge of economics… I now regret giving a question to the Associated Press.” Karoline Leavitt had no clue what she was talking about, got publicly humiliated, and instead of responding with facts, she threw a tantrum and refused to answer more questions.show more

Here’s what she doesn’t want to admit: 📉 Tariffs are NOT paid by foreign companies—they’re a tax on American importers. 📉 That cost gets passed to U.S. businesses and consumers—raising prices across the board. 📉 Trump’s last tariff war didn’t “make America wealthy again”—it forced the government to bail out U.S. farmers after China retaliated. Leavitt’s “revenues will stay here” talking point? Pure economic illiteracy. She got called out by someone who actually pays tariffs, and her response was to whine about it. The real headline? Karoline Leavitt just got wrecked by basic economics—and ran for cover.

This Cunt needs to be shut down all right

@presssec can’t take the heat…melting down

Did you expect anything less. She was hired more for her ability to swallow than tell the truth. I realize that was sexist and a cheap shot, but if the shoe fits....

So If they question you, you regret asking a question? Make it make sense!! I will assume the answer to his question is No, you have never paid a tariff! So telling about this administration!

Why is a press secretary so thin skinned? Her job is to answer questions put to her by our free press and answer them…so much for free speech 🙄

And I think it is insulting that this bingo has this job. What a dimwit.

Keep it in your pants Karoline

What a condescending little twat.

I find it insulting to have to look at "Deputy Dog" on the daily with no upper lip.
