A moment from White House press secretary Karoline [Bimbo #1] Leavitt’s Tuesday briefing is going viral, with critics saying it perfectly encapsulates the Trump White House’s approach to foreign affairs.
[Bimbo #1] Leavitt was asked if the White House had a response to the presidential election in South Korea, where liberal candidate Lee Jae-myung defeated conservative rival Kim Moon Soo.
“Yes, we do. In fact. Let me find it here for you,” [Bimbo #1] Leavitt said, flipping through a binder in front of her.
“Should be somewhere here,” she said, still flipping through.
After a pause and more shuffling, she added: “Hmm. We do not.”
She laughed awkwardly as she said, “But I will get you one,” before abruptly moving on to a new question from another reporter.
The clip quickly gained traction on social media.
Critics said it showcased the Trump administration’s lack of preparation and attention to world events.
“A total clown show,” remarked the Republicans Against Trump group.
