Karoline Leavitt Faces Backlash After Revealing Details of Trump’s Private Meetings
Former White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt sparked controversy after discussing private conversations involving Donald Trump during an appearance on Sean Hannity’s podcast.
Leavitt recalled a private lunch with then-British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, saying Trump openly criticized his policies and urged him to tighten Britain’s borders. She also described Trump’s conversations with other foreign leaders as direct and candid.
But Newsmax host Greg Kelly criticized Leavitt for sharing details of private meetings, calling it a “breach of trust” involving the president and the nation.
Leavitt has defended her account as an explanation of how Trump communicates behind closed doors, while reactions to Kelly’s criticism have been mixed.
The comments have now sparked a debate over whether Leavitt simply shared an inside story—or revealed more than she should have.
