Donald Trump had critics reaching for the barf bags with his latest praise of White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt.
The president asked reporters returning from the Middle East with him on board Air Force One on Monday how they thought Leavitt was performing in her role. Hows Karoline doing? She doing good? Should Karoline be replaced? Trump asked.
Then, he added: That face and those lips, they move like a machine gun, right?
Trump made a similar comment in August while calling Leavitt a star.
Its that face. Its that brain. Its those lips, the way they move. They move like shes a machine gun, he said, hailing her as a great person and amazing.. And people this time around responded just like then, with many calling the comment gross.

She certainly does seem annoyed and angry most of the time.

But it's a very freaking weird way of trying to say it. Dude is definitely not all there.
