This week, former President Joe Biden made a rare public appearance to discuss Social Security, prompting White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt to comment on his speech. However, her remarks ignited controversy, with many labeling them as ‘rude’ and ‘disgusting.’ Leavitt stated, ‘I was surprised to see former President Biden speaking at night; I assumed his bedtime was earlier.’ As the youngest press secretary in history, she also addressed Trump’s commitment to Social Security, asserting, ‘President Trump is fully dedicated to safeguarding Social Security benefits for law-abiding, tax-paying Americans and seniors who have contributed to this program.’ Despite her focus on Trump’s policies, it was her comment about Biden that drew significant attention. Critics expressed their discontent, with one remarking, ‘Why must they always be so rude and condescending? This is not an audition; it’s your role as a spokesperson.’ An Instagram user noted, ‘She performs well, but her comments were inappropriate and she should rise above that.’ Another added, ‘Karoline, you have crossed the line!’
