Trump's New Press Secretary's Troubling Remarks Are Coming Back To Haunt Her
Kayleigh McEnany has been spreading misinformation about COVID-19 for months. Her history of birtherism and other lies have also come under scrutiny.www.yahoo.com
On March 11, McEnany appeared on Fox Business and said that the campaign was still intending to hold rallies despite concerns about coronavirus. When she was repeatedly told that other campaigns are not holding events and that Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, had in effect advised against holding rallies, McEnany's responded, “The president is the best authority on this issue.”
And that's how she passed the audition.
The job doesn't seem to be very hard - the last Press Secretary actually made a point of doing nothing. I could do that without breaking stay-at-home rules.
