In a post on Truth Social, former President Trump criticized Kayleigh McEnany, who served as his press secretary during his time in the White House.
Support For DeSantis
Trump said McEnany gave out incorrect poll figures while appearing on Fox News in reference to the fight for the presidential primary in 2024.
McEnany made statements in the past that give the impression she is supportive of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ quest for the presidency. DeSantis just recently made the announcement that he will run for the presidency as a Republican.
It would appear McEnany was maybe referring to a poll composed by American Greatness. It showed Trump is ahead of DeSantis in South Carolina by a margin of 25 percent.
Trump, on the other hand, seems to be contesting those numbers by referring to the Real Clear Politics average that reportedly showed him up 34 points nationwide in the primary campaign.
In this context, the average shows Trump is leading.
OPINION 🚨: Kayleigh McEnany has been making underhanded digs at Trump for months. Trump should have called her out a long time ago. pic.twitter.com/UFLEHkf6KL

She Was Aware
Trump stated Kayleigh ‘Milktoast’ McEnany just sent out the incorrect poll figures on Fox News. He went on to say that he was, in fact, 34 points ahead of “DeSanctimonious” and not just 25.
Trump said while 25 is an impressive figure, it is not as good as 34. He added McEnany was aware the poll’s creators increased the number.
All the retards coming to Kayleigh’s defense are getting caught up in memories. The Kayleigh from the first Trump Administration is absolutely different than the Kayleigh McEnany who serves up generic milquetoast conservative talking points given to her by the Murdochs.

McEnany may or may not respond, but she would be wise to choose the best course of action in any case. McEnany has a Truth Social account, but she hasn’t updated it since April 30.
It remains to be seen if Trump makes any further comments regarding his former press secretary. However, more and more polls of the 2024 presidential election can be expected to come out, especially now that DeSantis is formally in the race.
DeSantis is widely seen as the greatest threat to Trump winning the nomination.
