My Take

What strikes me most about Karoline Leavitt is the sheer velocity of her rise. Born in 1997, she went from a small New Hampshire town to a congressional nomination at twenty-five and then to the White House podium. Whatever you think of her politics, and reactions tend to be fierce either way, standing in front of a combative press corps every day demands a thick skin most people never develop. To me she is a fascinating case study in how a new generation of political communicators treats the briefing room as a media battlefield rather than a press service. I will be watching where this trajectory leads.
