Reporter Asks White House for Evidence that Trump Has Been Falsely Accused of Being a Racist
Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt could not cite specific false racism claims against Trump and highlighted administration policies benefiting Black Americans instead.
- During a Wednesday press briefing before a Black History Month reception, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was unable to cite examples when reporters pressed her about President Donald Trump's claim he had been falsely labeled a racist.
- Following the Tuesday post about Reverend Jesse Jackson, reporters asked during a Wednesday briefing when Trump believed he had been falsely called a racist.
- Turning to the record, Leavitt said, `'So, there is a lot this president has done for all Americans, regardless of race, and he has absolutely been falsely called and smeared as a racist, and I'm happy to provide you those receipts,' and highlighted achievements like record tax cuts and funding for HBCUs.'
- Challenging reporters, the press secretary vowed that Leavitt's team would search the internet for examples accused by radical Democrats and provide them after the briefing.
- Amid Black History Month events, the timing linked the exchange to the Black History Month reception at the White House and the president's planned event later that day, highlighting debates over outreach and policy focus.
