President Donald Trump's chief spokesperson was roasted by critics on Monday night after she uncorked a wild claim about Trump's economy on Fox News.

Karoline Leavitt, Trump's press secretary, joined Fox News host Sean Hannity on his eponymous show, where she vigorously defended Trump's alleged economic achievements.

"Thanks to President Trump, Republicans, and common sense policies across the board, our country is safer and more affordable," Leavitt claimed at one point.

Her comments came at a time when the most recent economic data showed that inflation had negated the annual wage gains workers had seen over the last year. Inflation came in at 3.5% over the last 12 months, while annual wage gains averaged 3.2%, according to the data.

The primary cause of those inflationary shocks is Trump's war against Iran, which has sent global energy prices skyrocketing, according to reports.

Critics were quick to remind Leavitt on social media of the economic conditions most Americans face.

"Crazy since pessimism regarding the economy is rising sharply across the board, including among independents and even Republicans. There is no doubt that the cost of living continues to be a top concern," Tahra Hoops, director of economic research at the Chamber of Progress, wrote on X.

"It’s incredible when you can just lie every night with no consequences. Karoline Leavitt tomorrow night on Fox News: Thanks to President Trump, our country is not at war in the Middle East," Veterans for Responsible Leadership, a political advocacy group, posted on X.

"They truly have no respect for any of us. This should be funny but it shows they think we are all idiots. We aren’t," Fred Wellman, a Democratic candidate for Congress in Missouri, posted on X.

Images of President Donald Trump at one of his golf clubs over the weekend shocked a political analyst and raised fresh health concerns.

Trump was photographed at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, where the Saudi-backed LIV Golf league held its LIV Golf New York event last weekend. Several photographs showed Trump with bruising on his hand, and at one point, he seemed to labor as he went from one golf cart to another.

David Pakman, host of "The David Pakman Show" on YouTube, reacted to the images in a new video on Monday.

"As disgusting and dilapidated as these images are, and they're very disgusting ... These images are nothing compared to what they represent about Trump's presidency," Pakman said.

What surprised Pakman most about the image wasn't that it showed Trump's awkwardly bowed legs, or that the president seemed to have a hard time getting around. Instead, the most disturbing part was that it was another day that Trump spent golfing while the country underwent significant economic turmoil because of his war against Iran.

According to the Trump Golf Tracker, the president has spent about 22% of his second administration on the golf course, which has cost taxpayers around $175 million.

Pakman pointed to the latest job numbers that showed the U.S. economy lost 23,000 jobs last month, and that a growing number of people are leaving the workforce altogether. Credit card balances have also increased because consumers are buying necessities with debt, which only exacerbates the cost-of-living crisis many households are facing, Pakman argued.

"So, now I'm paying interest on multiple months, and I got to stay in a job I hate because there might not be another good job available, or I'll lose health care if I leave, and Trump is golfing," Pakman said.

President Donald Trump appears to be in the midst of a "slow decline" that could end with a surprising figure ascending to power, according to one expert.

Questions have swirled about the president's health throughout his second administration. He's been spotted with bruising on his hands on several occasions, and has been photographed with swollen ankles, which some experts have said are signs of a heart condition. Trump's mental health has also been called into question as the president has admitted to taking multiple cognitive exams.

David Rothkopf, global affairs columnist for The Daily Beast, argued during a new episode of "The Daily Beast Podcast" with host Joanna Coles that Trump's decline could end with Stephen Miller, his deputy chief of staff, gaining power rather than Vice President JD Vance or Secretary of State Marco Rubio, as many have predicted.

“Power flows from the president, from the people closest to the president, from the people who control his schedule, from the people who send out his statements,” Rothkopf said, noting that Vance has been conspicuously absent during many such events.

Rothkopf also noted that there are historical precedents for a president handing off their duties to aides. He pointed to former President Dwight Eisenhower's heart attacks and Franklin Delano Roosevelt's heart condition.

“And I’ve got to tell you, you look at Donald Trump, you look at the bruises, you look at his behavior, you look at his age, you look at his family history, and we could be heading for one of these periods where somebody other than Trump is actually, behind the scenes, the acting president," Rothkopf said.
