Karoline Leavitt is leaving the White House press secretary job at the end of August, just weeks after coming back from maternity leave with her second child. President Trump called her one of his most trusted aides and one of the best press secretaries in the history of the office. She’s 28, the youngest ever to hold the job, and she made it clear she cannot be the mom her two young kids deserve while carrying the nonstop demands of the briefing room. Trump is moving her into a top outside advisory role focused on the midterms and the Republican Party. Names already floating as possible replacements include White House communications director Steven Cheung, a California native and longtime Trump fighter who filled in while she was out. The job has chewed through press secretaries for years. Leavitt lasted through a second pregnancy, a combative media strategy, and constant heat — then chose family.Pat also covered: Does Jenna Ortega have the same “Ariana Grande disease” everyone is talking about?
