I think people are being a little hard on her. She may have flunked the reading/memorization part of the Miss Press Secretary contest but she obviously won the bathing suit portion 😍

I see a future OF collaboration with her and Lauren Boebert in her future

You had a chance to not type that out, yet here we are. :-/

I doubt they would even view it as degrading. They might televise it and it would be held on the White House lawn.

I would watch it tho

Is it still a hatewatch if I don't hate all of it?

I think you're in the minority on this one.

Boobs don't pick, a side of the aisle, they just bounce when they ride, and make you smile.

Not unless you take your hands out of your pockets.

At a broadway show in the middle of the crowd I’m sure.

Give maga something to do after Maga. But that would be against god.

u/festivefrederick 1d ago

That would get them kicked out because War Pete would frown on it im public. Probably not on his laptop.

Lmao underrated sarcasm I love it

Her voice isn’t grating. She just needs to fix her posture, square her shoulders and look a little more confident. Of course, the crap she spews will always be crap…so there is that. At this point I tune out the propaganda. I feel sorry for her. She is obviously in over her head.

u/Donnerdrummel 1d ago

she would also do good preparing for the more obvious questions.

u/Secure_Bed_9110 1d ago

Don't feel sorry for her. She has "wanted to work for Trump for a very long time." She knows who he is, and has purposefully joined this administration now. She's a ghoul.

u/Awkward_War_6068 1d ago

She's also apparently a complete conspiracy Qanon nutter.

u/blutosings 1d ago

Nah, she needs to smile more.

u/FishDawgX 1d ago

I don’t get the hate. I think she delivered the message she was supposed to just fine.

It’s her first day on a job in front of a huge audience. I’m sure she’ll get more comfortable and smooth as time goes on.

Although all of this is secondary to just delivering the proper information. Not everyone needs to a charismatic stage performer to do their job.

“Not everyone needs to a charismatic stage performer to do their job.”

That is correct. However, I think that it of a definitive part of the White House Press Secretary job. Confidence, charisma, and personality as the public face of our government is a huge bonus. If your job could be replaced by a mass email to the news corporations (I know, I’m using hyperbole) you need to bring a value add to the position.

u/Timely-Youth-9074 1d ago

I wonder what she did for the talent contest.

2

u/EmptyJoker 1d ago

Maybe she should come out in a bathing suit for her attire. Then people wouldn’t be focused on what she’s saying. That’ll be the next tactic.

u/FancyPantsRants1 1d ago

gotta leverage those assets i guess!

u/Maleficent_Memory831 1d ago

You think there was a bathing suit?

u/Star_Citizen_Roebuck 1d ago

BRO, "Miss Press Secretary" is brutal!! I love it!

u/Desperate-You-9695 1d ago

And of course, Trump’s not asking her to lie just to lie down

u/Temporary-Fox2328 1d ago

Pretty sure her President wished he was a little hard on her.
