US donald trump Karoline Leavitt South korea

Karoline Leavitt was asked for Trump’s reaction to the South Korea election results and her response is a devastating snapshot of how the White House works right now

It’s a fair assumption that we’ve never begun a post about South Korea election results – but there’s a first for everything, right? – where oopposition leader Lee Jae-myung triumphed in the vote after months of martial law chaos.

But that’s not why we’re here. Well, it is, but it’s more about the White House’s response after a reporter quite reasonably asked for Donald Trump’s response to the breaking news.

And press secretary Karoline Leavitt’s response – stick with it – is a magnificent snapshot of how the White House is working (or not) right now.

And these responses all won our vote.
