Karoline Leavitt Is Quitting as WH Press Secretary
The youngest press secretary in history is calling it quits after realizing that handling press briefings and two babies at the same time is absolute madness.
Karoline Leavitt is stepping down from the White House podium at the end of August. She just got back from maternity leave after having her second baby, and turns out trying to dodge reporter questions while raising two toddlers is a bit much. Who could have guessed?
At 28, she was the youngest person to ever hold the job. Donald Trump showered her with praise, calling her one of his most trusted aides and claiming she did a phenomenal job before sending her off with full support. She will still stick around as an outside adviser, because nobody ever truly leaves the orbit.
She basically admitted that being a mom to two young kids while running White House communications at the same time is an impossible grind. Fair enough.
Turns out defending official policy on a daily basis is slightly less demanding than wrangling two toddlers at home.
