White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt left Seth Meyers baffled during a spoof press briefing on NBC\u2019s \u201cLate Night\u201d Tuesday.<\/p>\n
In the latest installment of the recurring comedy segment \u2014 which uses clever editing to insert Meyers into mock exchanges with Leavitt \u2015 the host asked her to respond to President Donald Trump<\/a> calling his supporters \u201cweaklings\u201d<\/a> for demanding the release of the Epstein files.<\/p>\n \u201cThat claim is just simply untrue,\u201d Leavitt replied.<\/p>\n \u201cWhat? He posted it on social media last week,\u201d Meyers shot back.<\/p>\n What followed was a looping exchange of contradictions, with Leavitt denying Trump ever made the comment while also acknowledging he had.<\/p>\n The back-and-forth ended with Meyers exasperatedly saying, \u201cOh, my God! Why are you like this?!?\u201d<\/p>\n Leavitt\u2019s final response? \u201cThere really isn\u2019t a good explanation for that.\u201d<\/p>\n 20 Years OfFreeJournalism<\/p>\n Your Support Fuels Our Mission<\/p>\n Your Support Fuels Our Mission<\/p>\n For two decades, HuffPost has been fearless, unflinching, and relentless in pursuit of the truth.
