VIDEO EXCERPTS: I was struck during the Biden administration at how relatively open some Democrats were willing to criticize Joe Biden's press secretary. And I'm surprised, in this administration. I hear from a lot of Democrats who say Leavitt is doing a good job...

[...] Sean, except for the fact that she's spiceresque, what would you say are the elements?

[...] She does a really good job of staying between the guardrails. "This is what the President said. This is what he believes, or I'll get back to you." She colors within the lines really well, and she has a strong relationship with the President, and she knows what to say and what not to.

[...] I'll add one thing, also, to you guys. She's up on the news. I've dealt with press secretaries who really aren't up on the news because they're going to meetings, whatever, and they just don't keep themselves informed. Karoline is just a voracious consumer of information, and the latest. I give you an example of what I mean...

[...] Karoline Leavitt reads stuff like that and sees a buffet, a smorgasbord of possibilities to put the left on defense. And she's just got an incredible instinct for doing that. Which is again different than going to the podium -- as some press secretaries have done, trying not to make mistakes, trying to just get through the briefing without creating any news or creating any problems.

She is on offense and the left is giving her -- every day, material to work with...

Karoline is the best WH press secretary I've ever seen. Sharp, concise, doesn't get tripped up or trapped by gotcha questions.
KJP made a fool of herself regularly, but by comparison, Karoline makes her look like a toddler.

Karoline is extraordinarily good at what might be the hardest job in Washington DC.

Having to appear in a room full of smart (some of them at least) political enemies doing their best to trip her up for the cameras and tomorrows headlines with what they believe are 'gotcha' questions. And she somehow manages to turn the tables by putting her inquisitors on defense. She thinks really fast on her feet and her delivery is forceful and assured. She will be deep in one issue designed to trip her up, then the next question will be something totally unrelated if equally accusatory. But she's never at a loss and always in command of the material.

If I was CNN or NBC, I'd be a little afraid to face her. (She's only 27.)

A masterful performance up there.
