Trump Says Karoline Leavitt ‘Irreplaceable’ In Touching Interview

It’s clear that President Donald Trump has an affinity for his outgoing White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt.

The 28-year-old superstar announced last week that she would be stepping down from her position at the end of this month to spend more time with her young family, a decision that stunned many in D.C. – including, no doubt, the president.

In an interview on Monday with Fox News correspondent Alexis McAdams, Trump joked about Leavitt’s departure while calling her irreplaceable.

“Is Karoline Leavitt replaceable?” McAdams asked.

“No, she’s not. She really isn’t. She’s standing right over there and she’s done a great job,” Trump said.

Then the president added in jest: “She actually likes her children more than she likes Trump. I’m very concerned about that.”

“It’s a lot to juggle, right? You said you support that. Going back, is there somebody you have in mind that you’D like to see up at the podium to take over?” McAdams pressed.

“You. How about you? She could do the job. I think so,” Trump joked.
