UPDATE: The White House has launched a fierce rebuttal against Jen Psaki following her mocking comments about Second Lady Usha Vance, labeling her a “dumbass” and a “moron.” This escalating feud began after Psaki made her remarks during an episode of the “I’ve Had It” podcast released on October 10, 2023.
During the podcast, Psaki questioned Usha Vance’s well-being, saying, “Like, are you OK? Please blink four times. Come over here, we’ll save you.” These comments prompted an immediate backlash from the current White House director of communications, Steven Cheung, who took to X to respond.
Cheung declared, “Psaki must be transferring her own personal issues onto others,” while sharing the clip of her comments. He slammed her as “a dumbass who has no comprehension of the truth” and accused her of lacking talent, insisting she resorts to spreading falsehoods. In a pointed jab, he added, “Circle back on that, moron,” referencing Psaki’s well-known phrase from her tenure as press secretary.
Psaki did not stop at barbs directed at Usha Vance; she also characterized JD Vance as “scarier in certain ways” than former President Donald Trump, dubbing him “a little Manchurian candidate.” She claimed he is “willing to do anything” to achieve his ambitions, criticizing his perceived lack of charisma by stating he has “no rizz” and describing him as “a little odd.”
This confrontation highlights the ongoing tensions and divides within the political landscape, particularly as the 2024 elections loom closer. Psaki’s comments and the subsequent response from the White House underscore the volatility of political discourse in the current climate.
As developments unfold from this heated exchange, many are watching closely. Will this alter the dynamics of political commentary? How will this affect public perception of both Psaki and the Vances?
Stay tuned for more updates as this story continues to develop.
