White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany was blasted on Tuesday after defending Trump by claiming that he does read.
At the daily White House press briefing, McEnany was asked about reports Trump did not read the President's Daily Briefing that revealed the alleged Russian plot to offer bounties for the killing of U.S. troops in Afghanistan.
“The President does read,” McEnany argued. “And he also consumes intelligence verbally.”
“This President, I’ll tell you, is the most informed person on the planet earth when it comes to the threats that we face,” McEnany claimed.
