Karoline Leavitt’s ‘Democrat Party’ Rant Goes Sideways As Fox News Viewers Lash Out

That was a rough sales pitch

Karoline Leavitt walked into her Fox News interview on Monday evening with a prepared set of talking points and one very specific phrase she needed to remember. She had written it down in her media van, then photographed the note and posted it to her own Instagram Story before the segment even aired.

The phrase was “extreme liberal Democrats,” a description apparently so natural and spontaneous that Leavitt needed a written reminder to make sure she said it on television.

Critics spotted the photograph within minutes of it going up.

The note, however, was only the opening act.

Once the interview began, Leavitt delivered the full performance her preparation had promised. “These are radical, extreme liberals, socialists, communists, whatever you want to call them, Sean!” she told Hannity.

She warned that Democrats would turn the country into “a communist hellhole,” insisted that “this is no longer the Democrat Party of JFK,” and added: “Heck, this is not even the Democrat Party of Barack Obama.” She closed with a sweeping list of Democratic positions she attributed to the party, accusing them of wanting to abolish police, open the southern border, and raise taxes across the board.

Even some Fox News viewers were not convinced.

The real problem arrived when Leavitt shifted to the economy.

Standing on a platform that millions of Americans interact with every week at the gas pump and the grocery store, she told Hannity: “Thanks to President Trump and Republicans and common sense policies across the board, our country is safer, our country more affordable.”

Viewers who have been tracking their own spending were not exactly convinced. “Gas prices are currently rising. It’s now $4 per gallon,” one person wrote.

Consumer prices are up nearly 4% from last year, and median home prices have risen for 36 consecutive months.
