Leavitt: Iran Was Greatest Victory Of Any President

“No other president in history could have ever dreamed of such a success, and that’s exactly why the fake news media is now trying to demean and undermine the president, and we’ve seen this playbook be run before. You have hostile actors within the intelligence community who lick— who illegally leak bits and pieces of an intelligence assessment to push a fake news narrative, and that’s what the CNN story was yesterday.

“The American public are smarter than this, and they should know the truth. President Trump completely and totally obliterated the capability of Iran to produce a nuclear weapon, and the world is safer today because of his historic efforts.” – White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, apparently unaware of US victories in actual wars over the last couple of hundred years.

It’s fascinating the way Leavitt has turned herself into a mini-Trump, talking about him in the most grandiose terms imaginable, while denigrating every president who came before him. “No other president in history could have dreamed of such success” – pure shamelessness. https://t.co/nLzdSMyZ9o

A big reason Karoline Leavitt knows she can get away with towering buffooneries like claiming this is the greatest thing any American president has ever done is that she can count on getting accepted into polite DC society and given a lucrative Fox gig after all this is over https://t.co/QUWuDhUfnm
