Trump, 79, Falls for Karoline Leavitt Rate My Butt Account (The Daily Beast)President Donald Trump has repeatedly amplified a fake Karoline Leavitt X account that once asked followers to rate the White House press secretarys butt.
Trump shares the X messages from @WHLeavitt on his Truth Social account, despite the clear(ish) indication that it is a spoof account. Whilst the handle might confuse a 79-year-old president known to be a bit of a Luddite, the display name should be a red flag to him. It is Fan Karoline Leavitt, although Fan is rendered in stylized fonts and emojis in a bid to obscure that word. However, in an effort to stamp out fakes, X marks such accounts with a parody badge, too.
The messaging from the account, which has 213,000 followers, gives major clues that it is not the actual Leavitt. In March, the brains behind the bizarre operation invited followers to rate the press secretarys rear.
What do you think of my backside? Watch the videoits featured in the final 3 seconds. I am with President Trump and Mr. Musk," the poster wrote alongside a clip of Leavitt walking up an airplane steps with the aforementioned figures. Trump did not share a screenshot of this particular poll.
