White House's craziest comebacks during Trump's second term as spokesperson issues 'wild' response to health concerns

Headlines have been shaped by baffling press responses as well as all the executive orders

The White House has issued some wild responses in the past year. Ever since President Donald Trump started his second term, there has been no shortage of eyebrow-raising statements that have sparked concern.

The latest response has to do with Trump’s health, an area of intrigue for many. The 79-year-old world leader gave a speech at the White House’s ‘Champion of Coal’ event on Wednesday.

Trump signed an executive order which directed the Department of War to purchase coal power, after which he was hailed as the ‘undisputed champion of beautiful clean coal’ and received a trophy. Trump addressed the audience, but viewers noticed that he appeared to slur his words.

In light of the furore caused by the public appearance, the White House responded with a fiery statement. "President Trump is the sharpest, most accessible, and energetic president in American history,” spokesperson Davis Ingle told The Daily Beast. “While the deranged and failing Daily Beast has their lightweight, glue-sniffing interns push baseless conspiracy theories — President Trump spent the day unleashing energy dominance, lowering costs, and putting the American people first."

What did the White House say about Mark Ruffalo?

While on the red carpet at the Golden Globes this year, the Marvel star was interviewed by USA Today and was asked about the ‘BE GOOD’ pin he was wearing.

"This is for Renee Nicole Good, who was murdered," the actor said. Good was the 37-year-old woman who was fatally shot by ICE officer Jonathan Ross in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on January 7.

The Department of Homeland Security has defended the actions of the ICE officer who shot Good.

While explaining the significance of his pin, Ruffalo also had some strong words, accusing Vice President JD Vance of 'lying about what's happening'.

Turning his attention to Trump, the actor said: "We're in the middle of a war with Venezuela that we illegally invaded. [Trump's] telling the world that international law doesn't matter to him.

"The only thing that matters to him is his own morality, but the guy is a convicted felon; a convicted rapist."

"He's a pedophile," Ruffalo continued. "He's the worst human being. If we're relying on this guy's morality for the most powerful country in the world, then we're all in a lot of trouble."

Trump has also never been charged with a sex crime, including pedophilia.

Steven Cheung, Assistant to the President and White House Director of Communications, said: "More impressively, he's an even worse human being by spewing outright lies because deep down inside, he hates himself for knowingly subjecting the public to his god-awful performance."

What did the White House say about South Park?

There were plenty of jabs at the president in season 27, and in true South Park fashion this included jokes about his private parts and scenes showing him in bed with Satan.

Trey Parker, one of the show’s creators, addressed the controversy the scenes stirred at San Diego’s Comic-Con International. And by addressed we mean he simply said 'we're terribly sorry,' followed by a long, deadpan-comic stare.

The White House followed with a stern statement, as White House Assistant Press Secretary Taylor Rogers said: “The Left’s hypocrisy truly has no end — for years, they have come after South Park for what they labeled as ‘offense’ [sic] content, but suddenly they are praising the show.”

He then turned his attention to the show itself and added: “Just like the creators of South Park, the Left has no authentic or original content, which is why their popularity continues to hit record lows.

“This show hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention.

"President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country’s history — and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump’s hot streak.”

What did the White House say about White Stripes’ Jack White?

It started last August when Jack White posted a message on Instagram along with an image of Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Donald Trump meeting in the White House.

He said: “Look at how disgusting trump has transformed the historic White House. It's now a vulgar, gold leafed and gaudy, professional wrestler's dressing room. Can't wait for the UFC match on the front lawn too, he's almost fully achieved the movie ‘Idiocracy’.

“Look at his disgusting taste, would you even buy a used car from this conman, let alone give him the nuclear codes? A gold plated trump bible would look perfect up on that mantle, with a pair of trump shoes on either side wouldn't it?

“What an embarrassment to American history. Also pictured in this photograph, a REAL leader of a nation in a black suit.”

At this point, it should come as no surprise that the White House wasn’t happy about this.

White House communications director Steven Cheung told the Daily Beast, “Jack White is a washed-up, has-been loser posting drivel on social media because he clearly has ample time on his hands due to his stalled career.”

He continued, “It’s apparent he’s been masquerading as a real artist, because he fails to appreciate, and quite frankly disrespects, the splendor and significance of the Oval Office inside of ‘The People’s House'.”

But the beef didn’t end there. The Grammy winner hit back with his own lengthy statement. He said: “How petty and pathetic and thin-skinned could this administration get? 'Masquerading as a real artist'? Thank you for giving me my tombstone engraving! Well here’s my opinion, trump is masquerading as a human being.”

He said in part: “That orange grifter has spent more tax payer money cheating at golf than helping ANYONE in the country. Improve. Anything. There is no progress with him, only smoke and mirrors and tax breaks for the ultra wealthy.”

What did the White House say to a White House correspondent?

We can’t talk about unhinged responses without mentioning White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt.

With a fair share of responses to choose from, it was when a reporter quizzed her on the importance of a particular detail regarding Trump’s meeting with Vladimir Putin.

In October last year, as peace talks regarding Ukraine and Russia ensued, a spat unfolded when HuffPost’s White House correspondent, S.V. Dáte, pressed Leavitt on whether the Trump administration knew that the last deal struck between the Russians and Ukraine in Budapest was violated by Putin.

His text message, which Leavitt leaked on Twitter, read: "Is the president aware of the significance of Budapest? In 1994, Russia promised, in Budapest, not to invade Ukraine if it gave up the nuclear weapons it inherited when the Soviet Union dissolved.

"Does he not see why Ukraine might object to that site? Who suggested Budapest? Thanks."

The press secretary responded with the wildest, most unexpected response you can imagine (and no, she didn’t leave the reporter on ‘read’ but maybe that would have been better). She simply said: “Your mom did.”

To which Leavitt responded: "It's funny to me that you actually consider yourself a journal [sic]. You are a far left hack who nobody takes seriously, including your colleagues in the media, they just don't tell you that to your face. Stop texting me your disingenuous, biased, and bulls*** questions."
