White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt wasted no time in responding to her predecessor’s insults.
For those who don’t watch The View, the co-hosts were visited by former White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. While discussing the pearl-clutching over Leavitt responding to a HuffPost journalist’s question with “your mom,” and describing the Democrat Party’s “main constituency” as a group of “Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens and violent criminals,” KJP broke out an infamous insult.

“Do you have any advice for the current press secretary as to the decorum of that position?” co-host Sunny Hostin asked.
“You know, I have so many thoughts there. I do want to say something to the first clip that you all just showed, which is hearing that, it’s deplorable. And I’m using that word on purpose. Because they don’t seem to understand, this is the Trump White House, that they don’t work for just one man. They work for the American people. It is about coming together about a common good. The White House press secretary is not about doing online trolling,” KJP said. “It is not. It is an honor and a privilege to have that job and to speak on behalf of the most powerful person in the world. And there is a level of respect for the freedom of the press. Even if you disagree with them. And that is what that whole back and forth when you see in the press briefing room is about. It shows that we believe in democracy. It shows not just here, but the world, that the press is going to do what they need to do to hold us accountable, and we’re going to do what we need to do to communicate to the American people about what we’re doing.”
Leavitt joined Fox News’s Jesse Watters to respond to the insult, and boy did she deliver:
BREAKING: Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre calls Karoline Leavitt “DEPLORABLE…”
LEAVITT FIRES BACK: “Karine worked for the most incompetent president in history, so I guess she has a reason to be BITTER. But being BITTER will not sell you books.”

“With all due respect to my predecessor, she is one of the main culprits of the greatest cover-up and scandal in American history. She took the podium every day and lied to the press about the incompetence of her boss, and on this book tour, she continues to lie,” the press secretary said. She said this past week that Joe Biden would still be up for the job if he had, God forbid, been reelected in November. She actually said this week, as well on a podcast, that Joe Biden did ‘more press engagements than President Trump currently does now. Any person across the aisle can tell you that is a bald-faced lie.”
“And I will just add, when you talk to the real journalists, not the ones who are actually activists that post as journalists, but the people who actually care about truth – And there are some of those left in the White House press corps, I work with them every day – They will tell you that the Trump White House is the most accessible and transparent White House ever,” she continued. “Not only does the president take questions from the press on a near-daily basis, sometimes multiple times per day as he did today, but we also provide truthful and accurate information about what this administration is doing and accomplishing. And it’s a stark contrast to what they had over the past four years, where they were gaslit, where they were told Joe Biden was mentally stable and up for the job.”
“I’m very proud to work for the greatest president in history. Unfortunately, Karine worked for the most incompetent president in history, so I guess she has a reason to be bitter. But being bitter will not sell you books,” her clapback concluded.
