Karoline Leavitt held her first press conference since returning from maternity leave on July 16 in the White House, The Independent reported. President Trump is scheduled to deliver an address on election security the same day. Leavitt was asked why the president continues to focus on the 2020 election.
She stated that the media has refused to acknowledge that tens of millions of Americans share his concerns about the sanctity of elections. Leavitt said Americans will be relieved by the contents of the upcoming speech. Trump had previously described the address as a very big announcement.
