Old Series of Tweets Shows Trump's New Press Secretary Absolutely Skewering Trump During 2016 Primary Debate

Picture the time, during the 2016 election, when over a dozen Republicans were vying for the Republican Presidential nomination.

Many of those Republicans—like Senators Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Ted Cruz (R-TX)—saw Trump as a bigoted, temperamental lowlife who wasn't fit to be President.


Flash forward to 2017, where Graham, Cruz, and a slew of others who initially denounced him became Trump's most loyal supporters once he moved into the White House.

You can now add Trump's latest Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany to that list.

The American people know McEnany as one of Trump's most devout defenders during the 2016 and beyond, but newly resurfaced tweets reveal her allegiance to Trump wasn't always so unyielding.

During one of the Republican primary debates, McEnany skewered Trump's lack of preparation, while praising his enemies.


McEnany's criticisms may not have been as biting as other Trump critics-turned-allies, but it does show just how unyielding her devotion to Trump—or to the position of Press Secretary has become.

The woman once capable of pointing out valid critiques of the President now makes the exasperating claim that he's never once told a lie.

How far they've fallen.





This isn't the first time McEnany's past tweets have gotten her in trouble.

During former President Barack Obama's second term, she made a racist crack about his brother living in a hut in Kenya.

It's a quip that people haven't let her forget and for which she has yet to apologize.



It's good to know that Kayleigh's principles are as fallible as those of her boss.

Don Jr. Ripped After Going Off On Fox News For Being 'Biased' Against MAGA Republicans

Donald Trump Jr. had people rolling their eyes after he complained that Fox News is a "RINO network"—employing the acronym for "Republican In Name Only"—that is now "biased" against his father President Donald Trump and the MAGA movement amid the ongoing government shutdown.

The federal government shut down last week after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.
