About Kayleigh McEnany in brief
Kayleigh McEnany is an American political commentator and author. She has been the White House press secretary since April 2020. She is a graduate of Georgetown University and Harvard Law School. She supported Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election. In 2017, she was appointed national spokesperson for the Republican National Committee. She was critical of the Obama presidency, and in 2012 posted several tweets questioning Barack Obama’s birthplace, echoing the \”birther\” conspiracy theorist movement. In 2014, she tweeted about Obama’s half-brother Malik Obama, who lives in Kenya: \”How I Met Your Brother – Never mind, forgot he’s still in that hut in Kenya\”. She later apologized for the comment, noting that Obama went golfing after the murder of another journalist, James Foley, who was killed by ISIS in Syria in 2014. In 2015, she said on CNN and Fox Business that it was ‘unfortunate’ and ‘inauthentic’ to call Trump a Republican. On August 5, 2017, she hosted a 90-second webcast, Real News Update on Trump’s personal Facebook page. The following day, she praised Trump throughout the segment, saying she had brought the’real news’ to the American people. On April 7, 2020, she will be appointed as White House Press Secretary in the Trump administration.
Her rapid occupational success was noted by Van Jones, CNN commentator and liberal activist who worked with her at CNN. “There’s very few people in either party who can accomplish what Kayleigh has accomplished in such a short time… People keep taking her lightly, and they keep regretting it,” said Van Jones. “She’s one of the most talented people I’ve ever worked with,” said CNN commentator Van Jones of Mcenany. “I’m not trying to defend the messaging, but what I hope people can acknowledge is there’s veryfew people in both parties who can do what she’s done,” said Jones. ‘She’s been a thorn in the side of both sides of the aisle for the last few years, but she’s been able to do a lot of good things for the country,’ said Jones, who called her a ‘wonderful public servant’ and a ‘great communicator’ ‘She has a great sense of humor,’ said former employer Mike Huckabee. ‘I think she’s a great addition to the administration,’ said Sarah Huckabee Sanders. ‘We’re going to have a great team of people in this White House, and I’m looking forward to working with her’
