White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made a major faux pas this week when she took a selfie that showed an editorial cartoon depicting her boss, Donald Trump, as a Nazi.
Patriot Takes found the photo and shared it far and wide on social media.

According to The Daily Express, “Leavitt’s photo was taken for a piece published in the Independent Women’s Forum spotlighting the work of White House makeup artist Brittany Danielle, who is responsible for the press secretary’s makeup.”
That set off a chain reaction of online laughter and mockery.
