During a recent press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt engaged with podcasters and independent journalists in a lighthearted game called "Trump trolling or Trump truthing." The game involved assessing various statements from Trump, including his desire for Canada to become the 51st state. Despite some backlash from Canada, Leavitt expressed support for Trump's comments, suggesting Canadians would benefit from such a move. The session highlights the White House's outreach to new media outlets comprised of pro-MAGA influencers and independent journalists, showcasing a blend of humor and political commentary.
At Tuesday's briefing, Brenden Dilley, host of The Dilley Show, asked Leavitt to take part in a round of Trump trolling or Trump truthing, in which he asked about everything from Trump's repeated wish that Canada become the 51st state to his teasing a 2028 run despite the Constitution barring a third term.
Leavitt has begun holding separate press briefings for members of what the White House identifies as the new media which also gets a rotating seat during regular press briefings.
