Leavitt,‌ a native of New ‍Hampshire, served as‍ deputy press secretary during⁤ the second half of Trump’s first term from 2017 to 2021. She joined​ Trump’s 2024‌ campaign and served as the chief spokeswoman for the transition ⁢team.

The youngest person in this position

The‍ 27-year-old⁢ is​ known for his passionate defense of Trump in interviews and his uncompromising style, Trump⁢ advisers⁢ said. Leavitt will become the youngest person⁤ in US history to become a⁤ White‌ House press secretary. The ‍youngest ever press secretary was Ron Ziegler, appointed ‍by President Richard Nixon ‍in 1969 at the age of 29.

The people who officially speak for the White House are usually⁤ the face of the government and give daily press ‍conferences ‌at⁢ government headquarters

Instead, Trump ‍often gave long press conferences himself or⁤ took questions ‌from reporters. At the ​same time, ‍he denounced the media ​now and then as “enemies of the people.”‌ In his first four years in office, Trump had four spokespeople: Sean Spicer, Sarah Huckabee‍ Sanders, Stephanie Grisham and finally ‍Kayleigh McEnany.

Since winning the presidential election last week, Trump has ⁤already announced much of his future⁢ cabinet. Trump has yet‌ to name the heads of the Department of the‌ Treasury, the Department of Commerce and the Department of ⁣Education, which he wants⁣ to eliminate. The appointment of the FBI chief‌ is ⁢still⁢ pending.

This could prove advantageous as they navigate both domestic ​and international issues in ‌the coming‍ term.

Time.news ⁤Editor: Thank you for that insight. As we‌ anticipate her taking‍ on⁣ this role, what‌ can we expect in terms of media interactions and⁤ press briefings?

Political Communications‌ Expert: I expect we’ll see an assertive approach to press briefings.

We can anticipate a ⁣mix of strategic communication ​that ⁤aims to⁤ energize ⁣supporters while addressing prevalent issues of the day.
