"That clip and a video of world leaders laughing at Trump went viral Thursday, just days after Trump posted and deleted a fake AI video of himself promoting a bonkers MedBed conspiracy theory. On Tuesday's edition of MSNBC's The Briefing with Jen Psaki, the host mocked Trump Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt's effort to defend the MedBed video, and trashed Trump over all three viral moments: Now, yesterday at the White House press briefing, Trump's press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, was asked the incredibly valid question of why Trump posted that video to begin with, and this is how she responded."
"I think the president saw the video and posted it and then took it down, and he has the right to do that. It's his social media. He's incredibly transparent, as you all know. You hear from him directly on social media. He likes to share memes. He likes to share videos. He likes to repost things that he sees other people post on social media as well. And I think it's quite refreshing that we have a president who is so open and honest."
Three viral episodes involving President Donald Trump prompted public criticism and derision. A confrontation featured Rep. Madeleine Dean telling Speaker Mike Johnson that the president is "unhinged" and "unwell," with Johnson replying that many on the other side are too. A separate clip showed world leaders laughing at Trump. Trump posted and then deleted an AI-generated video promoting a MedBed conspiracy theory, which his press secretary Karoline Leavitt defended as normal social media behavior. Jen Psaki ridiculed the defense and connected the incidents to earlier instances of Trump making demonstrably false or exaggerated claims.
