Karoline Leavitt defied the laws of moral physics to insist that the true wrongdoers were Biden and the Democrats

Donald Trump was described as “that dog that hasn’t barked” in email by Jeffrey Epstein. Don’t tell Kristi Noem, who has a way of dealing with troublesome hounds.

The US president would love nothing more than to let sleeping dogs lie, but that hope was dashed on Wednesday when Democrats released emails suggesting that Trump was aware of Epstein’s sexual abuse of minors and had spent hours with one victim.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, who says a prayer before each briefing, was dispatched to the podium to defy the laws of moral physics by explaining why the true wrongdoers here were Joe Biden and the Democrats.

    Weijia Jiang of CBS News asked: “Did the president ever spend hours at Jeffrey Epstein’s house with a victim?”

    Leavitt ducked and lobbed back a double negative: “These emails prove absolutely nothing other than the fact that President Trump did nothing wrong.”

    She went on: “And what President Trump has always said is that he was from Palm Beach and so was Jeffrey Epstein. Jeffrey Epstein was a member at Mar-a-Lago until President Trump kicked him out because Jeffrey Epstein was a paedophile and he was a creep.”

    “This administration has done more than any, and it just shows how this is truly a manufactured hoax by the Democrat party, for now they’re talking about it all of a sudden because President Trump is in the Oval Office,” she said, a note of indignation rising in her voice. “But when Joe Biden was sitting in there, the Democrats never brought this up. This wasn’t an issue that they cared about because they actually don’t care about the victims in these cases.”

      Same old song and dance from Karoline. She’ll get some job on right wing media for the rest of her days. She’ll just have to defend Trump and pedophiles forever. Imagine that life? Truely selling your soul for fame/cash.

        Hey the pile of shit who did it before became governor. Admittedly of Arkansas, but still. Any one of Hitler’s cabinet can live well on the grift for the rest of their lives.

        The cult will never wake up. If they did, they’d have to kill themselves for being woke.

        Is she wrong about that last part? Clearly she’s deflecting and full of shit in general but Biden did have 4 years to do something about this. Why didn’t he?

      That’s not how proof works, Karoline.

      Actually, I did care about it when Biden was president, Karoline. Just another in a long string of war criminals. You think everyone who doesn’t support Trump automatically supports Biden?
