White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt claimed Donald Trump is just “trolling” about pursuing a third term as president—despite the fact that Trump himself insists he’s “not joking.”
During her second “new media” briefing, where Leavitt speaks to a group of mostly Trump supporters, one attendee asked Leavitt to play a game of “Trump Troll or Trump Truth.” The game involved Leavitt naming whether certain Trump proclamations were his true desires or just an elaborate form of public joking.
Leavitt claimed that some of Trump’s desires—including invading Greenland and having Canada become the 51st state—were indeed Trump “truths.” But when the attendee asked her the same about Trump’s musings on running for president again in 2028, she was unequivocal: Trump was joking.
“Trump trolling,” she said, “although the hats are flying off the shelves.”
